We have reached the sea! We spent the morning at the medieval festival in Cividale, had Frico and red Galice vino for lunch, and took a walk through the medieval town.
At 1 pm we started today's trip, with the wind heading in our direction. It was a quick ride, with hot temperatures, so the break in Gonars with a drink was really necessary. It got better soon, with clouds covering the sun, but the wind was also diminishing. As we got closer to the sea, there was more and more traffic of people heading towards their vacation destination, making our ride a bit unpleasant. We thought about staying one more night away from the sea, but decided against it. We were motivated to go on, trying to get there before everybody else and thus being able to find a less expensive place to stay.
We arrived at the tourist information in Lignano a few minutes after 6 pm, and were able to get a room with shared bathroom within our budget. After a 4 km ride we got there, right in the center of Lignano Sabbiadoro. The room at Hotel Splendid turned out to be perfect, with balcony with sight to the pedestrian area, a clean bathrom right across the corridor, and 100 m distance to the beach. Plus a locked spot for our bicycles.
