On awakening, I first saw in good light the majestic Italian Alps. It was freezing cold, so I dressed quickly and set out. The cycling was difficult. I think not physically as it was mentally, but after five hours cycling through the valley of the giants I arrived in Trento, almost as the sun went down. I went to the youth hostel and had dinner with a boy from Tokyo. It seems they all live in Tokyo! Wrote my letters to the Swiss Cantonal secretaries, home, and to Susan. Retired Late.
Mileage: Bassano to Trento 83 km
After breakfast we packed up and went to San Marcos Platz and finished proofreading his reports. Got the number 5 boat back to the garage. Started out at 1 pm. Flat, good riding into Bassano. Arrived in town at 5:30 but the sun had already gone down. Had cookies and pear juice on a little park with a commanding view of the mountains. I will enter them tomorrow. The sky darkened and the stars became indistinguishable from the lights of the houses on the mountain. Retired in a pasture by the side of the road.
