The day 5, from Barcelona, I was in Murcia province. There were more up and down since my route was slightly inland from here. The orange trees that I had been seeing in Valencia province have been gone, and there were more vin yards on my way instead.

5日目、ムルシア州に入った。ここから少し内陸に入ると景色にも変化が。オレンジ畑がだんだんと無くなって、変わりにブドウ畑～



Some vin yards have started harvesting.
秋の収穫の時期。ワイン用のブドウが収穫されてます。


It seemed olive has been grown bigger and bigger.
オリーブの実も随分大きくなりました。


Northern part of Mursia province was pretty. I liked the contrast of white clouds and the blue sky.
ムルシア州の北部地域。青い空と白い雲が綺麗な場所だった。


My lunch break. Still 30℃ during the day time but the shade is very flesh.
昼休憩。まだ日中は30度くらいはあるけれど、日陰はかなり涼しくて気持ちが良い。


My favorite time for there days was drinking a can of beer after cycling. It's very nice to have a cold beer after cycling 100km for all day under the strong sun of southern Spain. I always buy a beer at the petrol station right before lapping up the day. Its because normally supermarket doesn't have cold beer in Spain.
この頃は一日を終える為にビールを飲むようにしている。強い陽射しの中走り続けた後に飲むビールは美味い。スーパーだと冷たいビールが売ってないので、夕方ガソリンスタンドでキャンプ用の水を仕入れるついでにビールを買う。


Days 7, I entered Andalusia province.
7日目、スペイン最南の州アンダルシアへ突入。


The road goes miles and miles.
乾いた大地が延々と広がっている。まっすぐに伸びる道。


In southern spain especially Andalusia, there were many white color houses. It was very nice to go through some small villages in a mountain with white color houses.
南スペイン、特にアンダルシアには白で統一された家々が多くて、これが山に映えて綺麗。山の中にある村なんかは山の斜面をくりぬいて半分埋まっているような家があって、トルコのカッパドキアみたい。




I cycled through unique shaped rocky place on my way to Baza. This place would be very alike to Cappadocia if there was balloons flying on the sky.
岩山も奇岩なんかがあってこの場所に気球が飛んでいたらカッパドキア。


I found a fountain that I haven seen for long time in a small white village.
ちょっとした白い村で久々に見付けた山からの湧き水。この水は美味かった～




On my way to Granada from Bazr, I got stopped by a police car. They told me that I was on the highway for only cars. However, there were no road that cyclists can go, so I made a big detour and took some part of maintenance road for highway to make through this part. Eventually, I managed to pass this part but had a long detour.
途中、Bazrからグラナダに向かう道で警察に捕まるハプニングがあった。何故かというと高速を走ってたから。この区間は車しかダメだったらしい。特に罰金等は無かったけれど、車に乗せられてBazrに戻された。20kmくらいの区間だったけれど、遠回りな道を使ったり高速の脇道なんかを使って何とかこの区間は切り抜けた。



I am almost Granada.
長い長いぶっ続けで走る日々もあとわずか。グラナダまであと少し。
