15th day Tarnow to Niedriza

Distance: 138km
Total: 1709km

Night was pretty creepy in Tarnow - there was this crazy guy first trying to get in tent if there's some woman called Angelica or something, as there was nobody else he left. After a while I hear him mumbling nearby something in his own language and decide to just ignore him. After a while he comes back circling the tent and pulling the pegs. Tell him to get away from the tent and not come close, after a bit telling and seeing him to take more distance. Later I still hear mumbling in distance, but the rain starts and after a bit mumbling disappears. In the morning  I found several pens outside my tent also...

The rain had not stopped when the morning came, so had to pack the tent in rain. Rain made it extra annoying to get out of Tarnow. The landscape started to get more features, much as I was able to see from the rain and road 975 had first 9% climbs on it. The rain stopped in Nowy Sacz after 65km of driving. Ate huge pizza in one pizzeria, okay couldn't even eat it all - that huge it was.

Next 55km it was dry, and it was also pretty good road, rain clouds were all the time hanging on the high hills though. Last 15 or so kilometers it rained again. And at 130km there was this crazy uphill for 2-3 kilometers going 10% up all the time. But as I was reaching the hilltop in rain, looked upwards and saw blue skies - wow. From top of the landscape was very picturesque and made it feel getting up there.

The campsite was located in next valley, and luckily it didn't rain when I set up the tent. It was coming dark already, which made it pretty short evening.
