Day 92 - 2nd September, Morse-Swift Current-Beverley, 49.29 miles

Vyrážame za včas rána, chvíľu pozeráme po operencoch na Reed Lake. Je tam kvantum čajok, nejaké hvizdáky, more bahniakov, kačíc ...
Dnes bolo extra teplo, vietor protivný, skoro všade iba pšenica, ťažko sa šliapalo do pedálov. Videli sme líšku, stretli zopár miestnych cyklistov. Vo Swift Current som spravil gigantický nákup a trochu sme pohovorili s našimi cez skype. Ešte mierne schladenie sa v DQ... A boli sme späť v tej vyhni. Opäť sme zvážili svoje biky. Baškina Rosie má 60 kg a moja Makéta 70 kg... Spíme na malom rest placi kúsok za Swift Currentom. Všetko je vypadnuté, ale aj tak robíme oheň a dorážame nás pancake mix.

Nice fresh morning, doing a little bid of birdwatching, on the Reed Lake are thousands of birds, mostly gulls. Very soon is hot again, clear sky. Wheat fields are more common today, pastures or prairie less. We saw a nice fox, hiding in the grass next to the road. Met some local bikers, Hwy  #1 is probably only usable road for biking here. Wind wasn't so good as yesterday, temperature very high, it was hard to bike on the sun without any shade. We passed through Swift Current, city which somebody accidentally drop in the middle of endless prairie (or as some people said "in the middle of nowhere"). I did huge grocery shopping, chat with my family through Skype and we cool down a little at DQ. After my grocery massacre our bikes are heavier than ever. We found weight station, so Baška's bike is 60 kg again, but my is 70 kg. We camped down at the rest area near Swift Current, everything was totally dry here and in the grass were small cactuses. We did really nice fire in one of stoves and finished pancake mix.
