A beautiful ride today on a sunny blue sky weather. Started at 9 am at 9°c morning temp with my full gear on.Bought an Austrian map ( 9 euro) and follow Rd 44 all the way to St Poten , beautiful country road with a bit of rolling ups & downs . Surprised to see a Chinese restaurant in Boheimkirchen , had a quick buffet lunch for 8 euro ( eat all you can!) . Have to slow down with a very full stomach. Spending has increased as from now in euro. a bottle of 1.5litre of mineral h2o cost 1.6 euro ,a cup of coffee cost 1 euro. Today spent 42 euro and so wild camping to save cost but had to bear the cold at night. The temp has dropped to 6°c inside my tent now. Not cooking dinner cos' still not so hungry.I'll stuck myself in the sleeping bag as soon as I finish the write-up.Tomorrow expected to be in Linz but still considering whether to stay in Linz or bypass for another wild camp.
