Today's ride started 8.50am,already the sun is burning hot. To avoid the busy coastal road,i turn inland on SS7 Via Appia route with just one mountain to climb to reach Fonti before the downhill to Itri, and then it was flat all the way to the coastal town of Formia. On the left with lots of mountains, but the road is actually at the valley, lots of holidaymakers with their cars parked on both sides of the road, and walked across to enjoy the seaside.Under such extremely hot weather, it will be tough to ride all the way to Napoli which is another 50km. At Mondragone surprisingly found a cheap campsite near the beach for 10 euro. Just in time for a complete clean up and recharge of all the dead batteries. Too early to cook dinner, so i went for a swim in the Mediterranean sea, my very first time! but only lasted about 10 min as the water is very cold although under hot sun, quite a different feeling as compared to our Malaysian sea.
