With the day promising to be warm we bade farewell to the little roomba robot removing the dew from the gardens.
As we rode we watched the moisture rising from the fields and lakes. The water cycle is a cruel thing because after a a while we rode up into the rising moisture and stayed in it for about an hour !
The scenery of the agricultural land and forests was magnificent and partially made up for the relatively unchanging roads (some of the drivers were extremely challenging though).
The day had a sting in the tail. Firstly technology, after overtaking, we became separated and our GPS's took us differing routes through a town but due to the miracle of mobile phones and bluetooth headsets, we were soon reunited. With only 5 miles of the day left, Germany decided to throw us one last Umleitung but our experience saw us through to the Czech hostel.
After a boarding school supper, we hit the town and ended up in a bar that appeared to double as a creche, where John acquired a new grand child (and a slap on the wrist from the hostess for lifting down a toy for said child). This would seem to have taken us full circle from Ainslie mistaking an old folks home for a bar on the original Barbietour.
