Hi all, It’s been a very hot week so I’ve been getting up just before sunrise and hitting the trail. The goal being to beat the heat in the afternoon. So far that strategy is working fairly well. The little Danube of a couple days ago has grown into a mighty river. Yeah I jumped in and yes it’s cold 🥶 and very refreshing after a hot day.

Morning fog on the Danube at sunrise.

The wonderful bike trails of Europe continue to amaze me.

The beautiful city of Ulm on a sunny Sunday morning.

I climbed a tower to get this shot of Ulm and the blue Danube. It was a little scary climbing up with bike shoes 👠.

Dillingen clock tower.

The Danube gets bigger every morning.

Sunflowers in the morning fog.

They make helicopters here.

A German guy and I had a conversation using google translate 😊. And a beautiful view of the Danube valley. Yep I had to climb up several big climbs again today. I think the architects of this trail decided that it would be best to keep everyone in good health. Or it has entertainment for the locals who seem to not notice the steep hills 😩 .

The castle of Neuburg. I’m camping just outside of town.
Later taters, Thanks again for the comments and connection. It feels wonderful to know my friends are here with me. Freebird
