Trechtingshausen – Mainz

Last night I put up my tent at a camping.
It was a fine spot and the surface was horizontal. When I came back from the toilet, I went completely nuts.

There was a strong and cold wind coming from the south and it brought rain along. Brrr.

When I left the camping, the owner came to me to collect the money. He looked like: Karbonkel. And when he had received the money, he started to laugh like Gargamel who had finally caught all the Smurfs. It was a unpleasant surprise.

Just after Trechtingshausen I wanted to take a shortcut over the riverbed but is was not possible. :/

Then I hit a big line. 50 degree [norder breedte]

I arrived in Bingen. The town that seemed to be not so far away but in the end still took a while to reach.

A random grandfather started a conversation with me. He told me that the water is now so low that you can walk to the island with a toll tower. I joined him and his granddaughter.

This is the dam to the island. I wonder what type of stones it is, let me know in the comments

When I was in the center of Bingen, there was not really a place to warm up. So I went directly to Mainz. In the Starbucks I completely dozed off and I sat there for a while until I could go to my host(s).

This illustrates my day a bit.
