Oops again

August 31, 2019August 31, 2019 FebeLeave a comment

So yesterday evening we were going through the PDF folder again and we noticed that the distances between towns are marked on the overview map at the end. We calculated that we would have to do about 80 km today and also notice a small note in the description of the Nort loop: teilweise stärkere… Continue reading Oops again →

82

August 30, 2019August 31, 2019 Febe1 Comment

It's just too hot in the room under the roof, we both slept badly and wake up at 6.30 before the alarm goes off. During breakfast we check today's route: sights, lunch options, kilometers. We pack, put on 50 spf sun screen, get the bikes out of the locked garage and set off around nine,… Continue reading 82 →

to Münster

August 29, 2019June 28, 2020 FebeLeave a comment

We forgot to move the alarm clock, so up at 6 am it is. We finish up the last fruit and porridge, take care of some administration and then start packing. No stress, our starting point Münster is only a three hour drive away so we want to leave in the early afternoon and have… Continue reading to Münster →

Wesel – Summary

August 18, 2019August 18, 2019 FebeLeave a comment

It was just four days, but seemed pretty long, which is a good thing for a holiday. I only had a tablet with me so the writing didn't go so smooth and I couldn't get the pictures of the reflex digital camera, so the trip was not as well documented as usual. Home now, all… Continue reading Wesel – Summary →

Lippe und Dämmerwald

August 17, 2019August 18, 2019 Febe1 Comment

Today is our day out on the bikes. We googled and apped and have decided on a self made 70 km tour from Wesel, starting along the Lippe river canal, then following an old railroad to Schermbeck and back north and west through the fields and forests. It's dry when we leave, I even put… Continue reading Lippe und Dämmerwald →

Shopping in Düsseldorf

August 16, 2019August 18, 2019 FebeLeave a comment

I love shopping for clothes in Düsseldorf, there's a great mix of designer stores and malls and plenty of room for pedestrians. Whereas in Paris I often have to buy the largest size, here I'm absolutely average and have no trouble finding items in my size. We take the car, there's plenty of highways to… Continue reading Shopping in Düsseldorf →

on the road again

July 25, 2018April 14, 2019 Febe1 Comment

we have a busy morning: I'm working until noon while Arne prepares the house for a two week absence. We had such a busy time the last days that we still have to pack when I get off from work. This however motivates us to pack quickly: usually we would dither and doubt about how… Continue reading on the road again →
