I turned around and started heading back towards Loretto today. I was already planning to leave yesterday, but as I wrote in my previous blog, it was raining. I was expecting an easier ride, but after about 10 miles or so the headwind/crosswind kicked in, and it was kind of difficult almost all the way till the end. I tried a different hotel today and it seems to be nicer than the one where I stayed last time. However, it is a longer walk to the restaurant for dinner.
