Cycling trip - day 4
Lazy morning, slept well, caught up with some of the lost sleep of the last night. Weather forecast said rain at around 5pm, so after breakfast I headed off towards Vaduz in Liechtenstein, hoping to make it before rain.
The cycling infrastructure is awesome here! Lots of people cycling, of all ages, and not just tourists. And tbh, the whole valley into Vaduz was flat as a pancake. Good quality cycling paths following the canals and crossing the fields. With the mountains drawing nearer and eventually being all around, it was a nice ride in cloudy but warm weather.
The route to Vaduz took me inside Switzerland for a bit and also to a Swiss mobile network. I suddenly got a bit of a shock, I had not prepared for the fact that Switzerland of course is not in the EU and thus does not have the same 37GB per month of roaming data I can use all around the EU. I bought a 1GB package for €25 (Elisa moster prices) and switched off mobile data unless needed for something. I also didn't realize I may need Swiss Francs and a power adapter (Liechtenstein shares both with Switzerland).
Had a burger and a few beers in Vaduz, which was already full of tourists, and then headed 8km south to Camping Mittagsspitze, who over the phone told me not to hurry and just set up my tent even if the reception is closed, and pay in the morning. It was raining somewhat hard again on the way to the camping site so I had to set up the tent in "rain mode". Went pretty well this time, was a good idea to practice this in Finland before leaving.
Distance cycled: 66.32 (today), 199.83km (total)
