Okay, Mamma said there was be days like this and that was yesterday. Lots of detours and confusion and construction along the Danube sent me off track into nowhere land several times. The work around was lots of very difficult gravel and rough as hell. Like I was riding a jack hammer. Luckily it only lasted for about 40 kilometers. Once I got through that life was good again. Today was a short ride (it’s all relative) to beautiful Passau.

Yesterday beautiful sunflowers and pavement greeted me just beyond the construction. Just as I was about to give up.

Castle for Sale. Fixer upper. 😂😅

I celebrated one month of riding with a roasted pork dinner. It was fantastic. Yeah, I ate it all and followed with dessert 🍨.

The mighty Danube as the sun rises and burns off the fog. Perfect weather for biking 🚴🏾‍♀️.

Horse and I (he needed a drink) Passau Dome in the Background.

Inside the Dome. Where my new friends from Cologne treated me to an amazing concert 🎶 of the pipe organ.

My friends Uwe and Gabby just before the concert. I met them a couple weeks ago on the Rhine. They said they were going to Budapest and we might run into each other again. And sure enough, just as I entered Passau city square I heard someone yell my name. It was Uwe. You can’t make this shit up 😄.

My campsite 🏕️ on the Ilz river.

Three great rivers meet here in Passau , the Danube, Ilz, and the Inn. I’ll be taking the Inn tomorrow to salzburg or that’s the plan. Take care. Thanks so much for your kind wishes and comments. I love them all. Freebird
