Distance: 113km
Total: 1000km
Night was noisy one and morning came early - not surprising with so much people around. Morning ride along the lake shore road showed that the tent string was still on the beach for next 10km. Ate second breakfast in Lazdijai and tried to spent last of my litas. Border crossing was easy, there was huge road with very little traffic, the road had 7.5ton weight limit so no trucks was seen for about 70 kilometers. As entering Poland roads became narrower and not much else really changed.
It was sunny in the morning, but as day grew older it became more cloudy and finally in Augustow skies broke with thunder. I had made my way to Augustow through many super long straights and was visiting tourist info center and local kebab place as the thunderstorm stroke. There was electric thermometer on the square and it dropped to +18°C from +27°C within 30 minutes. Temperature raised little after the thunderstorm and skies stayed cloudy, which made excellent driving conditions.
Drove to Rajgrod on road 61, which was horrible in the truck traffic - and yeah, polish roads don't seem to have shoulders. Got on campsite, although would have wanted to carry on for longer, but map shows no other campsites really on the way so had to do with this one. About this campsite; it's the absolute opposite from last night as I'm apparently only customer - also campsite manager didn't really speak any English, so paper was used to communicate the few things. No Wi-Fi again like last night, but local bar should have one - maybe breakfast there then in the morning.
