Today we took the small ferry across the NOK to Holtenau. From there on to Friedrichsort. Very nice little place. Then to the beach at the Friedrichsort lighthouse and back. This time the ferry was too full for me, so up to the high bridge and over 🙃😬

Yesterday we drove to Kiel before starting our little bike tour through Kiel. We particularly recommend the 1950s Museum and the old lighthouse, which can be reached free of charge by ferry. A real highlight.
