A steep, leafy hill with a castle and hotel on top.
The walk to the hilltop hotel with luggage in 30°C heat was interesting.

View of the entire bridge, showing a little of each of the two islands it connects.
Another picture of the bridge will have to do, because we didn’t get much further. Turns out 70KM through mountains in the heat is harder than it sounds. Thank god for the ferry.
