Our friend Michel Fleurance has been tracking our wanderings on this trip. Have a look at what he has so far, HERE . It looks like we are drunk, but rest assured we are doing this on pastries only!

The sun has risen now, over the Neckar. I was thinking that the morning light mighr give a photo that makes the water look clean, but there is no disguising how brown and muddy it is. We can't remember if it looked like this before. Maybe it's just a high runoff year.

The fact that I can say the sun has risen is a good indication of a sunny day coming. It means we could cycle long and far. On the other hand, we don't want to use up what is left our route too soon. If it happens, though, we will strike off for a short foray in some other direction
