I knew that today’s way will just be at the coast, down to Barcelona, but I had two options; Either on the main road, and being separated from the beach by the train tracks, but with the insurance that the road does not have a dead end and that it is suitable for bicycles, or the way at the other side of the train tracks at the beach, even though I would not know if I could even drive there. Until midday I just took the main road, then I had a break at the beach and then I continued at the right side of the train tracks. It took a bit longer than it would have on the main road, but I was not in a hurry.

The closer I came to the city, the more crowded the beaches became. Once I reached the city, I had to search for the apartment of a friend of the girlfriend of the son of the cousin of my mother, because I was able to stay there for a few days. Of course I had a kitchen there to use, and of course I cooked way too much. I think, my stomach is quite confused, about either not getting enough food and then again, getting way too much. Anyway, I did not leave the flat again today, but tomorrow I am going to wander around and join the Pride Parade in the afternoon. And also I hope that I am not going to melt then.
