cycling north, passing Drama

15 May

After the tire damage I needed some spare. As the producer of the tire wanting to send me a replacement by parcel, I had another time to change a bit my plans…

… and wait for the parcel send to Alexandroupoli as poste restante to the parcel post office.

Therefore, I will do a bit of a loop and discover the north of Kavala and later then the island Thassos.

Not very aesthetically… and neither Byzantine or older time 😉

A nice view of one of the many beaches:

Lovely road… again smelling the pine-trees:

Nice clouds… while bypassing Kavala to the north

Kavala and the island Thasos:

One or two bunnies (clouds):

The archeological site of Philipi closes the road… but there was a large amphitheater- UNESCO site!

Further clouds in west.. while I was enjoying tail wind and having no clouds.

Some industry showing issues..

And the clouds coming from north over the mountain behind Drama:

Even the wind was helping me, I felt very lazy and unprepared. Looking forward to get my condition back.

The Thermometer was showing over 35° in the sun, while the one in the street showed 25°

The view over The Valley towards Kavala:

The weather towards the north was becoming darker…

And more garbage was to be found…

I wanted to pitch the tent while being dry… so I shorted the day and make everything ready:

View from the tent down the valley

In between two rains…

Ready for good night!
