Last night was cold, well below freezing. But we had to get out of our sleeping-bags and start walking. Our first 2.5 hrs was walking in the shade of the mountains around us in the valley. It was beautiful but as there was no sunshine it was cold all morning, even the water in my drinking bottle froze. At around 10 a.m. we hit the 100 km mark of our adventure and we were pretty excited about it. Afterwards we had some uphill hiking and finally got out of the shade into the warming sun. After climbing to the highest point south of Etna we walked for about another 10 km to find our home for the night in an abandoned locker-room at an abandoned sports-park. We enter the building through a hole in the wall; a bit creepy but that’s just how livin’ is done!
