Day two. Less sun than the day before, with similar temperatures. The winter gear continued to hold up.
I had a bit of bad luck with the train back in the evening, but that was my own fault, as I should have expected regional trains between larger cities to be packed on Sunday evenings.
But the actual

A wonderful tour in wintry temperatures. The entire tour was in sunshine. Regular breaks in lovely cafes. It was delightful.
My winter gear is excellent, maybe just a small cold spot in the crotch.
Otherwise, the heated insoles and neoprene overshoes are simply fantastic. I highly recommend them ;-)

My phone's navigation device was broken, so I had to navigate the route using my (partially) unresponsive main phone. Therefore, some sections of the route aren't recorded correctly. I've included the photos I took without editing them, so you're probably best off not even looking at them ;-) :-D

On the last day, we were treated to two fantastic bonuses as a farewell gift:

The second day we spent entirely on the island. We did another loop hike today, albeit a shorter one, as the wind was reaching 60 to 70 km/h at times. Today we visited the restaurants that had been closed the day before. At least some of them ;-) We varied our routes through the dunes a bit, which made

On the first full day of our tour on Borkum, we did this circular route, as some of us hadn't been to the island before. Some of the places we planned to stop for refreshments were closed. So we did a similar route again the following day :-D
This tour was definitely very beautiful, especially the section

On the second day, we had a stroke of luck. Heavy rain had been forecast the previous evening, but it stopped just in time for the start of our leg. So we arrived at our destination – the ferry terminal – almost completely dry.
The temperatures weren't quite as great, though, and there was a strong headwind

First (somewhat) longer bike ride of the new year. It was tiring ^^
But also really awesome :-D
