When we got up, we weren’t sure what’s next for us. We are still in this “no real plan” mode, which is simply great! In the end we decided to try also the Transalpina, another mountain road which could be open, but we weren’t sure. First it was some highway and then the curvy fun began. Even though Sprinty isn’t perfect for narrow and curvy roads, it was still a lot of fun. At the pass height we made a short stop and had a chat with a fellow camper who we first met a little bit further down. He was unsure if the road is really open but then decided to follow us and just find out. We then did part of the descent and are now at a spot in the fog close to the road.
