i had a wonderful time time with michele\'s relatives deborah and david, who showed me arround and made me sandwiches even at 2 in the morning ;) thank you folks!
I have to recommend hotel Colombo. The interior design is phantastic and crazy. via garibaldi was impressive, but the most of the city was impressively filthy.
after crossing the italian border the cyclists I meet become more professional and less cooperative ;) I take the chance for a last swim in the sea and two pizzas for dinner.
i love this city: lots of young people drinking on the beach, asian takeaway-food, ice-cream and a fabulous drunk party organized by the comunist party ;)
in this exklusive village the cheapest room was 150 euros per night so i was quite lucky to meet a hospitable guy called jean-luc who invited me to his house.
it\'s hot and the landscape becomes cliffy and mediterranean. the traffic around marseille is horrible. don\'t really like the city and the hotel that charges me 3 euro for taking a shower.
traveled along the coast for most of the day, plane and endless. in miramas there\'s not much more than a train-station, a post office and a hotel. i enjoy my steak with french mustard and fall into my bed.
traveled along the \'canal du midi\' and arrived in beziers for the "fete de la musique": dozens of intoxicating performances in a mysterious arabic city.
the evening florian and I tried to cross the pyrenees we came into darkness and a thunderstorm. we\'ve been lucky to find a shelter in an abandoned ski-resort.
