The night had been good. No filth, no noise. All I could hear was the wind blowing outside, which made for a very cozy feeling in my little room.

…but still, I really didn’t feel like walking anymore, so today it was all about the road signs:

100km to Shanshan

…another 100km through those empty spaces…

81km to Shanshan

The new highway I had been walking on yesterday hadn’t been completed yet in this area:

It wasn’t that good to walk on, so I eventually just stuck to the road:

The people from yesterday’s place had been telling me about this one.
