Something very simple today. Just moving my legs a bit. The weather was very unstable. I could practically feel the rain somewhere on my neck. 😉🌧️

Quickly made a cool tour with the family in the evening. Can also be done with a lot, since a lot is driven in the forest and in the shade. It is better to take the river path from Ponte Brolla to Locarno. Great way. Found by chance, because our main road was completely closed due to a serious accident.

After that we made a detour along …
