Stage 60 Ciocarla to Constanta 34 kms
people would cheer me on. Only on one section where the road bifurcated to Tulcea and I found myself forced into the middle of the road did I feel uncomfortable. I paused at the pilots boat, named Constantia, hauled up beside the road to indicate the entrance to the city, for a photo stop, and then it was unexpectedly easy plain sailing the final five kilometers to our hotel on the Boulevarde Decembre 1918, from which Katherine and I walked, with the bicycle, together down to the decrepit, once magnificent but now very sad, Cazino, on the very shore of the Black Sea. Mission well and truly accomplished. It remains to explore what appears to be a fascinating city tomorrow and then to go home.
