Day 20 --- Biking along the Rhine


Day 21:
Friday, June 11
Our bikers arrived in the Netherlands and seem happy to be on great bike paths. At their hotel there is even a brick building dedicated to bike parking... a far cry from having to put their bikes in the lobby at the hotel in France. It was a little cold and looked like it might rain at the beginning of the day, but ended up better than expected -- there was some wind. They were about to enjoy a beer when Dave and I talked. Dave's fall yesterday resulted in his fellow travelers insisting that he not have a beer(this had to be quite a hardship on Dave), so he was quite pleased to be enjoying a cold one today. He shared that he had been a" little" confused... at first he did not know he was in Germany or even Europe.... after his fall. In a short time he was able to piece together the puzzle and the bike ride continued. It is so great that they are traveling together and not on their own... this solo stuff is not very good.

Trying to find their way into The Netherlands...



The plan is to have two more days of biking.
