Day 14 Germany, 02/10/2010 Oberwesel. 3.54miles/6.09km. ride time 28mins. av 7.4mph

The rain is sadly back! Have decided to stay put, as the forecast for tomorrow is looking much better.

Spent the morning catching up with computer stuff and then went back to Oberwesel for a better look round and some lunch. The rain had thankfully stopped when we cycled into town and we set off up the very steep streets that criss cross Oberwesel. It really is amazing how easy it is when the bikes aren't weighed down by all the luggage. We must be getting fitter! It was only when we came back down the hill that we realised just how steep the streets are.

Reaching the main street we discovered a small festival, with people in period costume and a medieval style group of musicians. We stopped and watched for a while, had a coffee and doughnut (a Berliner) and then went back to the camp-site.

We spent the rest of the day sorting photos, relaxing and trying to find camp-sites further along our route. After Mainz there could be a problem as there seem to be less, if any sites. May have to stay in a guest house for a couple of nights, oh well am sure it will be fine!

Tomorrow Mainz.
