I'm in Rijeka now, the whole city is a construction site. You always learn something new, today I booked an apartment in Rijeka through Booking.com, everything was fine, then I got the usual email, "call the landlord to find out more..."
Since it was only 300 m from where I was, I went straight there.
It was an agency that arranged rooms; I was given the address, front door key, PIN for the entrance gate, PIN for the apartment.
Luckily it was only 600m away, the building wasn't that nice from the outside, the elevator was broken, 4th floor with all my crap. Good thing I asked if they had the description in German. So I entered the code on the apartment door (Open Sesame;=) ) and it worked, the same with the apartment door, also good (I'm in..).
Lo and behold, a top-quality apartment, everything new, I would never have thought it (ugh on the outside, great on the inside).
Then to the laundromat.
Drying my wet clothes from yesterday.
The journey from Krk was mostly on the road, I happened to pass a bonsai exhibition and went straight in. You can cross the bridge from the island of Krk by bike, it's an adventure.
On the way I met two Bavarian cyclists in their 50s, after a short chat they left me behind, probably with less luggage. That was a sign, after 8 days on the bike in a row, I need a rest period.
I'll skip the 1200 meters of altitude that my komooter friend suggested for tomorrow.
My bike and I take the bus...
Sorry, had time, the laundromat.
more tomorrow.....
