– Kollmar – Meldorf – Flensburg – 70 / 123.4 km indeed such an ongoing number ^^ Yesterday it was exhausting. Don’t know exactly why. And creepy. Maybe it was because of the wind, maybe because of the weird hill that suddenly had to be overcome. I don’t know. And what do you do after that? Of course, a mega long stretch hanging on. Well, it was creepy in the evening. I had first considered going to one of the…
– Dangast – Otterndorf – Kollmar – 82km / 78km (ball bark, northernmost point of Lower Saxony) It was cold last night. And especially wet. Luckily I was on the campsite in time and had set up everything, because in the morning in Bremerhaven I finally started early. Especially when it gets so warm again, it’s better, then I can go to the beach again in the afternoon if I have to pay for it… Otherwise the path runs mixed,…
– Dangast to Bremerhaven – 83.9 km. (79.4 + to the city) There I sit now, in the corner of a common room in the hostel. Cozy is different to me at least three school classes on class trip. The little ones play bingo, the next ones are forced to play community games next door and the last ghosts ghost through the house or play football. – The place is just behind my tent, on the other side of the…
– Dornumersiel to Dangast – 98.5 km Two days first? Since this morning, it seems to me that I have been travelling alone for ages. When you get up, it’s totally cold and the wind is even stronger than in the evening. So I’m dodging something, sit comfortably in the common room and have breakfast. Actually, I leave far too late. But with tailwind, and what for which! In just over two hours I tear down the first 40 km…
– Emden after seeing how far – Dornumersiel 83 km Today the adventure really begins. I am alone, I have to allocate my time and strength only to me, look for a place to sleep and so on. I woke up at just after seven. The sun was shining on the tent and it was just too warm. I got up quickly, ate, was in the bathroom etc. After checking out shortly after nine, I had to find a way…
Tomorrow we let go quite comfortably, with baguette and a lot of time in the sun. For lunch we went back to the city, to Emden, for a delicious pizza. Unfortunately we were prepared for the sun from the campsite, and have now started to freeze properly. Me at least. Afterwards there was a short tourist program, from the distress rescue cruiser to the boiler lock. A more ice cream afterwards. Then it was time to go to the station….
– Papenburg to Emden – Even though my speedometer started working well again, I haven’t written the kilometers yet. But if I’m alone then. We have let it go quietly, and have followed the dike almost all day. A bridge is no longer available, which was still marked on the map, but what should be. The only difference is that we drove back and forth over the bridge on site for the lunch break in Leer. But it was also…
– Haren to Papenburg – We still didn’t quite get in with the early start. So it was pretty much half an hour later. But the mood was much more relaxed throughout the day. We told more, the track was not so far so there was some time for breaks and we needed them accordingly less. But I don’t know what exactly was because I didn’t write it down immediately due to a lack of battery. This blog is still…
– Salt mountains to Haren – From the feeling of an early riser, a haphazard Swiss and a fascinating spectacle. Although I don’t leave the tent for the first time until half past eight, we remain the only awake people doing their thing for quite a while. Of course, it is still unstructured, but that will certainly improve tomorrow. Just because of the reason that it is already very warm at ten. After a good half an hour there is…
From friendly railway staff, detours in a circle and a tent on the playground. After a typical farewell breakfast at home, with bread rolls and everything around it, we head across the city to the train station. Luckily all known ways to get used to the weight of the wheel. It is a little tight with time, but only for the timetable. The reality is different, at 25 min. So there is plenty of time to make some jokes and…
