31/Luglio/2008 O rmai me and 'clear that from here you are in then you walk! Parto only one of the first, with darkness that conceals the signs (yellow arrows). After an hour I can have breakfast, and only Cafe Tostado (3 Euro).

The evening out when to turn off 22 the light of the large room. Tomorrow will prepare 'backpack, Bucher' new bladders and we hope to be able to walk at least 30 km .. We'll see ...
