Today was a somewhat dreary start to our tour. After having breakfast at the bakery in the supermarket and stocking up on provisions, we set off. The weather didn't know what it wanted, sometimes it rained a little, then the sun shone a bit, and then drizzle again. But we don't want to complain, we mostly

How relaxing it is to wake up in the bed in the morning and it's raining outside. Today we neither have to pack up our tent nor do we have to move on. We planned that well! We strolled through the city and the harbor to the German Maritime Museum on foot. We spent a few hours in this beautifully and

We could barely get the children out of the tent this morning. It was cloudy and windy outside, and really nice and cozy warm inside the tent, not hot. It also got late until everyone finally sank into a relaxed deep sleep in their sleeping bags yesterday. Because we had spent a bit too long in the common

Originally, we had planned another rest day for today. We don't know if N's hand will have fully recovered from the bee sting after this rest day and if she will be able to ride around 50 km for 3 days in a row afterwards. Rolling holidays, rolling planning. So we decided to only do a short tour to Wilhelmshaven

This morning we were lucky that it was a bit cloudy and the sun didn't immediately heat up our tent. So we let the children sleep a little longer while we packed what we could put away. At 9:00 AM, we then met for the mudflat introduction tour. There we learned various exciting information about the

Before we could set off today, we first had to clean our tents - inside there was a bit of sand, outside they were full. Because the wind blew the sand directly onto our tent from the beach. Since we were almost sandblasted at the first location, we even moved our tents a bit yesterday, but unfortunately

The rolls today were from the camping supermarket and were eaten at one of the tables on the campsite while packing. A German couple sat with us at the table, who are also travelling with their bikes. Their three children are no longer up for the programme. And I am really enjoying that we can share

Today we planned our first rest day. We couldn't sleep in for too long today, as the sun heated up our tents incredibly. After doing some laundry and having breakfast, we set off with our bikes and light luggage towards the beach. There we rented 2 beach chairs and swam in the North Sea. We had lunch

Today we let ourselves and the children sleep in a bit. There was still the Switzerland-Argentina match, which was watched partly awake and partly asleep in L.'s small tent. Unfortunately, by leaving late, we were punished with the very strong headwind today. Despite strong pedaling, we sometimes only

This morning at 06:00 we tried to pack our things as quietly and efficiently as possible and saddle our (wire) donkeys. Donkey Bruno was a bit stubborn and tired for the first few kilometers and needed a safety distance of a few meters from the lead animals.
It was a nice experience to be out so early

This morning we planned breakfast after 6 km at the nearest bakery. It was already quite hot this morning when we reached the bakery. The big challenge then was: to find a cozy shady spot with a place to sit so that we could eat comfortably. We only found this in the next village on the steps of a church

After a purpose-serving breakfast at the hostel and a longer provision shopping at EDEKA and the bakery, we left Bremervörde. Today we rode a lot through forests, on various paths. Sometimes rolling well on asphalt, sometimes also narrow, sandy, earthy, muddy - rolling less well and getting shaken up
