Day 322: Because of the very exhausting last day I did not intend to go very far. Today the wind was still strong but shifted and was now coming from the north again. The road had a light descending slope, so I was very fast.
After only 25 km I stopped at a big rest area with free wi-fi and I recharged my batteries and updated my blog.
I had time because my intend was to look for a place nearby to spend the night and go to Eilat the next day.
The day before I learned that my friend´s uncle who is living in Eilat is not home and I had to look for another accommodation. I contacted Marcin, my Polish support and he managed to find a couchsufer for me in Eilat.
While I was sitting at the rest area I met manny people who where interested in my bike. At one point I was surrounded by a group of German tourists who I showed my promotion video and advertised my blog.
After my batteries where recharged I looked for a place for the night. I found a good spot under a tree and pitched up my tent and had a tomato-cucumber salad for lunch. The rest of the day I just relaxed.
Day 323: I was not in a hurry because my couchurfing.org host in Eilat was not home before 3pm and I only had 40 km to go.
I went back to the rest area and spend some time in the internet and at noon I left for Eilat.
The wind was very strong but this time in my favor so I made the 40 km in under 2 hours.
I contacted my host and after a short while I met Ameer.
He is a nice, funny guy who loves to host people in his one room apartment. Ameer had to go back to his school and left me with another german guest of his.
Marika, was about to catch a bus to Ein Gedi and I escorted her to the bus station and talked about our journeys.
When Ameer got back in the evening we took the bikes and he showed me the city. We went to the beach and talked till midnight.
