The weather is warm with high cloud and me
and Peter head out early for our first ride on the right hand side of the road.
covered about 30klm and managed to negotiate the roundabouts okay. Arrived back
for breakfast at the hotel and Mrs Schimtz serves us a beautiful cooked
breakfast at 8.00am. Mrs Schmitz asks if I would like cereal, yes please out
comes a generous serving of cereal, pour in the milk, start eating then she
brings out two smaller bowls. Oh! oh! did you want cereal Peter?
Next we visit a window into German life
through a series of village life spanning 500 years. They are actual period
buildings from many regions within Germany and reassembled in village settings,
in a forest and rural landscape. You meander through 3klm of German life with
people dressed in period costume, baking, working, teaching children etc. and
are able to buy freshly grown or produced merchandise.

Accompany Erik as he visits his local
communities. We also visit a unique boundary where the borders of Netherlands,
Belgium and Germany meet. Erlik says welcome to Holland , welcome to Belgium ,
welcome to Germany as we walk in a circle. Vaalserberg is also The Netherlands
highest point. 322.5 mtrs. With me and Peter standing at the mark it tops out
at 323 mtrs. What at a great day.
