Woke to light wind and sunshine. A quick breakfast of campsite buns, coffee and hot chocolate set us on our way for what turned out to be a day of four halves.
Firstly we cycled through wonderful nature reserve and had great views of two pairs of cranes as well as swans, storks and herons.
The second half consisted of cycling for miles on good track on top of the dyke with our first real views of the Elbe.
The third half entailed a long foodless section finally culminating, at the 50 mile mark, in Havelburg where a late lunch was very welcome.
The day ended with a final 25 mile dash to Tangermunde where we set up tents in the grounds of the rowing club.
Cultural highlight - Neustadter Tor and Historisches Rathaus of Tangermunde.
Lammhax and numerous beers have numbed the senses apart from the tenderest bits.
Well what an eventful day!!
ReplyDeleteGood mileage though ...
ReplyDeleteThat sounds exciting. What did ypu do after you woke up?
ReplyDeleteOh dear, after all that mileage were you too exhausted to write any more? Sounds like a lot of pedalling!
ReplyDeleteI see the comments relate to the initial very short post. Then embarressed by lack of information you added the interesting bits.
