ok let see if I can
reach Nice in time for a ferry to corsica, 12pm already reached Canne
that midway. Another 2 hour should be in nice. Easy. So all the way
was that famous cote d azur, well what left of it. On about 60 km, if
there 4 km with no house its a lot and those house arent even
beautiful. So nop im really not impress by this coast. Once in Nice,
I went straight to the port, good idea the boat was leaving 30 minute
after. I wanted to go Calvi but that one was going Bastia, bah its
corsica anyway let take it. In the office I meet Khurt a french
staying in Grasse, I meet him again on the boat, and we talked all
the way 5 hours it take to cross. Didnt expect that long. 5 hours of
laught, that guy was funny and we said lot of stupid thing but was
nice and made that trip lees long. He gave me is number if I wanted
to visit grasse I could have a place to stay. Will see.
Arriving in corsica, 8
pm, nice welcome I add here, a guy said hey someone on a bike, we
must applause him, so about 6 of them went on. I wave them and
carried on. Still need a place to sleep.
First time I have to
set camp in the dark. Eat a bit and job done bed time.
14 April the Cave
later start then
expected but still was on the bike at 10am. Back wheel was making
strange noise, I stoped to take a look, put the bike upside down,
replace the wheel a bit and went on. Dunno what it was but its gone.
1H30 I stopped for a break near the sea and went down on the rock
where I saw a cave. Humm could be a nice place to sleep !! was early,
took me 30 minute to decide yea ok let sleep in the cave. Set a tarp
at the entrance to cut the wind to get in, its still cold those
night, put the tent on the floor and the matrices over it, camp set.
First I went near the water ”about 10 meter from thhe cave but im
on a higher level. Check in the water and hey what are those pink
globe floating. Cool 3 medusa. Found some fishing string and a snail,
let these the medusa. It did grab the snail with 2 tentacles. I tried
to pull to bring it closer put no success. Went further on where I
found a crab. Let these him to with that same snail. Got it out of it
little home but was so small that I throw him back in. made a small
fire after my food and now its bed time. Let hope I made a good
choice.
Morning
well that was a lovely
night, not cold at all. Sure my tarp did help. Did woke up a few time
during the night mostly cuz of my arm hurting. Yea got hard time to
sleep on that matrice and hate sleeping bag feel all jam in. wish I
could sleep on my back.. did see a few shape, first was one that was
looking like a baby bear, and another one was like a huge gargoyle
trying to reach me with is arm. Yea you did guest was just reflection
of the rock with shadow that was creating it. Wish I could take photo
with me eye.
