Small loop around Lake Prester. The paths on the Elbe are still marked by the flood and are quite muddy. We had to bypass one spot. Was a bit of an adventure.
Things are also progressing at the Mouse Tower. We are excited to see when the restoration will be finished.

Nice little round with coffee and cake at Lüders in …
