It's been 2 months since last trip we had with the motorcycle. Meanwhile our butts have to readapt with sitting multiple hours a day on the "comfy seat" of the old Transalp.
So take it easy.

I got lost looking for a bathroom. Getting to it was more of an art labyrinth than anything else.
Meanwhile, someone else had plenty of time to dry off and ventilate their feet.

Dried off and warmed up with a nice dinner.
The camping itself is close to the main road and quite noisy, but it will do. A warm shower and a place to pitch our tent was all we needed.
