Day 5: Remich - Metz - Strasbourg

By Yael Zekaria · Journey: to Tuscany by bike

Had a planning session last night to figure out how I'm going to get to Tuscany in 7 days and decided on a bus to cross the alps. I had a weird dream that I had gotten off said bus to through something away and then the bus left with all of my things and I tried to run after it but one famously can't really run in dreams so I ended up going back to the warm showers host to get a lift with him towards Hungary. Then woke up.

Will try to not get off that bus.

Arrived in Metz after 70km on riverside paths and no climbs but passing what smelt like all of Europe's sewage facility.

Bum is sore. Need coffee.

Caffeinated and hanging out in a cute bookshop/café until the train to Strasbourg and trying to find somewhere to stay tonight

Made it onto the train with moments to spare, in a classic style.
Equipped with delicious raisin and walnut bread from the Warm Showers host in Remich and special import tahini that I have been carrying with my from Bristol, of course.
