Had a late start around noon due to rain in Berlin in the morning. There were some smaller rain showers throughout the day, but all in all I got lucky and stayed mostly dry.

I was now following the cycle route Berlin – Copenhagen, and this route proved to be quite popular. For the first time on my trip, I saw lots of fellow bikepackers, even though the weather was a bit grim.

Also I met @brinibellini (heading to CPH), and we shared the road for a while and chatted. It’s fun to meet people with a similar mindset. 😊

We split ways in Oranienburg as I wanted to do some more kilometres.

The shelters I found on the way didn’t quite suit me, but then I found a little camp site at a lake which wasn’t on any of my maps. Officially it’s shut down, but I met a cool older guy — Frank, a friend of the owner — who let me into the camp site anyway (yay, shower!) and we had a nice long talk until midnight.
