"God is not external to anyone, but is present with all things, though they are ignorant that he is so."Plotinus 204-270 AD

One of the most beautiful places I reached this afternoon, in the morning I met Toby, who came from the UK heading to Azerbaijan, and we took some time to exchange thought about transpersonal observation and communication with the environment while being on the tour.
I reached Apt, where I decided to go for Murs, a nice ascend until I diverted from the road with a great view back to the south . . . even though there was sufficient space, but very rocky so took some time to find a place to pitch the tent.

The ascend to Col du Murs was brief, through the village of Murs first, getting some more water - and then descending to Carpentra, via road in the shadow (northern slope) and then flat into Carpentras and then continued - then ascend started but took some time until I got a suitable place with the silence and solitude I desired.

I was motivated to ride today, but I didn't know what to expect: steep ascends, but it wasn't even a pass, but a detour from the river - finally came to Montbrun les Bains, and then surprising ascend to
Col de Macquegne, ascending about 400Hm and steep - short before the pass, I met Pierre, and we rode the last 1-2km to the pass together.
We talked a bit and he invited me to his place, which was just 30km away, all descending, a valley I considered to continue.
Unfortunately he had to work night shift, so the talk at his place was brief - I camped in front of the house, even though he offered a room to me, but I explained that I prefered to sleep in the tent.

The next morning I started early and rode through the beautiful canyon of Jabron, but since it was still in the shade, it was so cool that I head to wear by headband and bicycle gloves.
I continued to Sisteron and then entered valley heading to Digne les Bains, a few kilometer before I found a nice place - took the time to wash the inlining of the sleeping bag and some t-shirts.

One of the nicest days in regards of the route, little traffic, and steady ascend to the Col de Robins at 988m, about 2km after I detoured into the forest, still before St. Andre les Alpes.

The night was chilly, due the elevation, I descended to St. Andre and continued along the Verdon which becomes a lake due a damm - I descended further to Castellane and further direction to Rougon which was ascending again.
I felt my knees and didn't continue but turned back and rode a few kilometers until I found a nice place - very nice canyon, but many places had signs not to camp so it wasn't so easy for me to find a place.
