A storch family

Im Naturpark Dümmer. 22-04-2000. I make camp in a small forest of birch trees just before sunset. There are several farms nearby but I don`t expect any problems wild camping like this. Not like the inhabitants of the nearby farms will phone the police and I`ll end up sleeping on the hard...

Ordnung ist Ordnung and Befehl ist Befehl

Im Wald in der Nähe von Nienburg. 21-04-2000. Ever since I left Eastern Germany`s dark-green forests behind me, goodbye to the weird fairy tale land of the brothers Grimm, things have turned for the better. I cycle all day under a nice spring sun. No more rain and sleet slashing into my...

Arrival and orientation

Well, nothing terribly exciting yet. I got into Trier yesterday and took a taxi to my dorms, and finally have my own room again. It's a really exciting thing. Tommy's getting here was hectic - he was supposed to arrive at about 3, which was too late to check in with the Hausmeister so I'd gotten...

I`m back in the real world of mankind.

Im Wald in der Nähe von Soltau. 20-04-2000. Having my breakfast in a small McDonalds roadside restaurant I realise that my time of cycling through these dark-green and mysterious Eastern German forests has come to a definite end. Long and solitary days on the bike cycling under overcast...

A birth explosion of magflies.

Im Wald in der Nähe von Lünenburg. 19-04-2000. A brave but still weak sun greets me when I wake up and stick my head out of my tent. I`m surrounded by literally thousands upon thousands of tiny mayflies buzzing around my head while I break down my tent, bury the five half liter cans of...

Back in Germany

Well, I had no problems getting back in. I flew into Basel, took a bus back to Freiburg, killed some time with Krystal, picked up my luggage, etc. I still have to kill about 6 hours in the Freiburg station, though, to catch the midnight train up to Koblenz (where it will arrive at about 5 in the...

Back on track to Amsterdam.

Im Wald in der Nähe von Wietzetze. 18-04-2000. Flashes of lightning light up the inside of my tent while I work on a couple of cans of Weissen brew. The rain is once again coming down like a tropical downpour reminding me as always of my trips to Thailand and the little family I have...

a macho white peacock.

Im Wald in der Nähe von Rastrow. 17-04-2000. It has been raining every night now since I left Berlin but with enough dry hours during the day time to manage my 80/100 km. a day, though last night it was hail that was being sent down to me by those divine beings that are rumoured to inhabit...
