Aveiro - Figueira da Foz

25 May 2022, kilometres today: 79
Kilometres since the start: 3429

A very pleasant day, started quite early.
There are safe, if not pretty, cycle paths, but the roundabouts to access them are not at all obvious. Besides, I would never have taken the cycle path along the motorway if it hadn’t been indicated on my route. No indication at the entrance: I entered the lane ready to turn around...
Then I leave the cycle tracks and the roads to go closer to the Ria de Aveiro, and well done, it’s a path in quite good condition, not much used and with a nice view on the Ria at low tide. Then I join the road and it is less interesting a straight road for about fifteen kilometres.
I stop in Tocha for a coffee. Quite intriguing this white church, very small in the middle of this huge square.
When I get to Figueira, my way is cut off! The road is under construction. Fortunately it’s lunchtime and the workmen are not there. And fortunately there is no big hole that forces me to turn back: the road is almost finished.
I arrive early, at 1:30 pm: what leaves me time to make an essential washing and a very pleasant nap ^^
