Sunday 12th May 65 miles

Riedlingen to Tuttlingen
It rained during the night,but a peaceful spot and a great nights sleep. I began by cycling up and along the hill rather than by the off road river cycle path. A great idea as on Sunday hardly any traffic and I passed an old hill fort at Hundrrsingen. By afternoon and a few more miles the Danube as I cycle up river is visably diminishing in size. I cross cross on small bridges frequently as I work my way up through a limestone goirge
   A days cycling with no big towns , hills views and wild life .The squirrels here are a darker shade than our red ones at home. Birds of prey in the sky and occasionally a deer. Also in one small village the children’s play park seemed to be hosting 3 circus ponies a llama and a camel.
  Tuttlingen is where I leave the Danube now a mere stream. It is however, a bigger town and the free camping area next to the skateboard park did not feel very secure. But Ralph and Silke riding their bikes ‘rescued ‘ me and I sent the night in an an suite apartment at Silkes house Thankyou.
