After a good 60 km on the bike, I was looking forward to a cold beer... which I also got, from Biermanufaktur Potsdam.
Unfortunately, the Paulaner glass doesn't fit at all, but ultimately the beer doesn't care what label is stuck on the glass.
After a delicious kangaroo steak, we took a little tour of

With a good 60 km, this was by far the longest and most demanding stage.
Demanding not because of the terrain profile, but because of the wind, and everyone knows that it always comes from the front.
Scenically very appealing and you could enjoy it beautifully and let your thoughts wander.
It is interesting

The exhibition's title comes from the film "Solo Sunny" and gives a preview of the special exhibition on films from 80 years of post-war DEFA film history.
Good film selection and good description of the films shot in the GDR.
Some you know, others meant nothing to me.
As it fit the timing, we also viewed

The last 2 days on foot were good after the cycling stages.
Since the stage to Brandenburg an der Havel is scheduled for tomorrow, we warmed up today with a bike tour.
After a delicious breakfast at Café Franz and a short tour around the City Palace, we went to the New Garden.
There was a guided tour starting

18. Ein Tag in Potsdam
Potsdam zu Fuß und damit intensiv, denn:
"Nur wo du zu Fuß warst, bist du auch wirklich gewesen“.
Dieses Zitat wird oft Johann Wolfgang von Goethe zugeschrieben, stammt historisch gesehen aber vermutlich nicht von ihm.

But that doesn't matter, the crucial thing is: It's true!!!
Even by bike, you discover places you wouldn't find otherwise, but on foot it's even more intense.
So today, I went through Potsdam on foot.
Since my beard hasn't received any care for weeks and my favorite woman still needed some time, I visited

I have been to Sanssouci before, but never as intensely as today.
In the morning, first of all, hotel breakfast: very good: you can cut cheese and ham yourself fresh with the machine... we didn't know that yet.
1. stop was the city's former large military orphanage, which is now the seat of a state ministry

Potsdam is actually the main intermediate destination of the tour, where we will take a 3-day break from the Havelradweg.
Therefore, today we will only do a short evening round to get used to legs instead of bikes again.
And since the AUTUMN Wine Festival (HERBST-Weinfest) is taking place right in front

Short stage from Spandau to Potsdam, but again with a detour into the Nazi past, the Wannsee Conference Memorial of 20.01.1942, where the "Final Solution to the Jewish Question" (their complete annihilation) was decided.
Another picturesquely located place where, just before breakfast (really), the extermination

A quick freshen up at the hotel and then we set off on a short loop through Spandau.
We had seen the Brauhaus Spandau on the way and since it looked very promising, we directed our steps there and were not disappointed.
Afterwards, we walked along the Havel to the mouth of the Spree into the Havel.
We stood

Today we overslept for the first time. We didn't set an alarm clock, so we slept until 8:45 am. It's vacation after all. Then there was no breakfast at the guesthouse (as planned) and the bakery opposite was closed... of course, it's Monday.
So we cycled back into Oranienburg, had a bread roll and a coffee

From the accommodation to the castle it is 3 km. So we got back on our bikes and rode to the castle.
There we took a nice walk through the castle garden, partly designed as part of the State Garden Show, including a great playground.
Unfortunately, the weather today was completely unpredictable and of

Today, after a hearty and very delicious breakfast and a chat with Marleen (Rose), the owner of the guesthouse, we were only briefly in the saddle, as the next worth-seeing destination on the route was already the city of Oranienburg, which we want to visit and see some things later.

Komoot played a trick on me today and stopped the recording, and I didn't notice. I'll have to correct it at home if I manage.

In Zehdenick I had booked accommodation yesterday, which we spontaneously extended by one night.
So today, the focus was just on finding dinner.
The city tour is tomorrow after breakfast.
