Orkla River

Day 26
Today I woke up just before 6 and had breakfast. Then I read some in my book and relaxed while waiting for TLC to wake up. Later it started raining heavily so there was no use to hurry. After a while I fell a sleep and woke up again at 9 am. By 10 we were all packed and on our way when we spotted a grocery shop so we bought 2 large coffees and some bread. It started to rain heavily so it was a perfect time to have coffee. We had some really nice cycling today with fields and old fashioned houses, you could sense the tide of history. Partly we had a rough time on the gravel road going up and down. But the weather was fine all day. We came to Meldal resupplied and filled water by the hairdresser. Then we went further on the road to find a camp spot and we did at Orkla River, a really nice one today. We made dinner and had a beer, then after washing up it was time for some book reading. I have been feeling a change of season during the last few days, you can feel how it changes from summer to autumn. Nights are getting colder, leaves are changing colors and flowers turn to seeds and are blewn away by the wind. Distance today 62 km
