Woke up late again, had a leftover pasta breakfast, checked email, and was on the way by 1300h. Gulya had suggested an alternative route to the main highway that travelled through smaller towns.
Headed out from Samara and after 33km turned up the smaller road that lead through forests reminiscent of Northern Ontario and pastoral lands. Stopped after 100km to have a bit of a snack. Continued headed north and east up toward D. Tried to find an open cafe, but most seemed to be shut down for the day (a little strange), so I settled for a bit of an a la carte dinner. 
I headed into the woods 5km from D. and set up the tent by the still river surrounded by millions of mosquitos. (At least I know that no one will be out to get me with all those critters around!) Had a delicious salami and cheese sandwich dinner and a couple of Baltika troika beers, before heading to bed listening to the croaking of frogs and the sound of transport air brakes (again)..
