– Medium Churches – Bremen – Lintorf 95km I was exhausted after about ten kilometers, with headwinds and smaller rain showers. The first of them already when waking up, the tent quickly dismantled again in a short break. Luckily, it gets less wet during the morning. I take breaks many smaller ones that day, in the back of my mind the destination Bremen, and the train home. My nose tells me that it is slow enough and that I have…
– Kollmar – Medium Churches – 107km The day is mainly wet and cold. But from the beginning. I get up very early and set off my tent at seven o’clock in the morning. In the first rain break, which is also immediately over again. But then I have to have breakfast for a very long time, until my appointment in the bike shop. There may be more to this in a few days or weeks. Afterwards we head towards…
– Neu Duvenstedt – Kiel – Kollmar – 57km The time has come. The 1000km mark on my speedometer is cracked. Early in the morning I leave, already at about seven, the camp place seems a bit strange to me and I do not want to meet too many people. As soon as I fall asleep, I realize that it will be for me today in Kiel. The first time I have to torment myself again through the mountains. Then…
– Flensburg – Neu Duvenstedt – 88.3km … Which I actually want to drive. The 50 km that Googlemaps spit out for me last night would be a nice quiet change, with time to look at Flensburg and possibly. Schleswig. But the chaos starts early. “When I’m so high in the north, I can cross the border,” I think to myself. That’s fine, but I can’t get to the proof photo. But the way back is somewhat difficult. The bike…
– 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….
