| Evening at the camp....using a slow shutter! |
We have thoroughly enjoyed our
weekend here with it’s very low key, informal campground even down to having a
flock of ewes and lambs in the neighbouring field. After a night of rain the
weather really improved yesterday. Bikes out and we headed downstream to Bad
Karlshafen along one of the best cycle paths we have been on. It was sealed all
the way and very wide. It generally followed the river most of the way as it
wound its way through very picturesque countryside with hay being cut, lots of
maize, quite a number of horses and many small villages. At several spots there
were cable operated river punts to take cyclists across the river, there are
cycle paths on both sides and they are well used. Our fitness is improving and
we rode much of the way without using electric power, except when there were
little hills!!
We had a well earned lunch in Bad
Karlshafen, really nice and good to have a sit! Used a bit more power on the
ride home, the legs were feeling a tad tired but we were quite chuffed to finish
at just under 45 kms, our biggest ride yet, and one our most enjoyable.
