Left te town of Novska, and after about 20km we turned off onto a quieter road.

Gentle hills, made atmospheric with the fog. We passed through small villages which had many livestock out — donkeys, cows, chickens and pigs we saw.

Arrived at the town of Bjelovar around 4:30. We had booked a place on Booking.com. It is run by Slobodan and Blaja, who let out their main house, and stay in a small apartment in the back garden when guests stay.
The house is a labour of love of about 20 years. Slobodan put everything together by hand, using parts he found in the flea market, when people throw things away at the side of the road, and from clearing out people’s houses.

They made us feel at home, and Slobodan put logs on the fire for the sauna for us, and we relaxed in the heat after several days of longish cycling.
