Bad Godesberg – Erpel 20 October 2018 I woke up in the place we sang about with Jana and her singing group. “Home I’m going home, I need a land to feed my soul, take me home take me home over the green green hills and far away.” What they didn’t say in the song, was that it would be very foggy and my tent would be soaked from the fog. The only thing that was left to do, was…
Bonn – Bad Godesberg 19 October 2018 After having a pleasant stay at Jana & Alex, I was ready to travel further. Thanks for being so flexible. In the south part of Bonn there was this church and it played exactly the same tune as the clock at my mother’s house. In Bad Godesberg I passed by the Haribo factory store. It was total madness, more than 500 products only from Haribo. My teeth almost started to hurt from the…
Dentist day 17 & 18 October 2018 As mentioned in Day 15 I had to go the dentist. So I went. I hope the pain will go away now, they did almost everything they could do.
Bonn rest day 16 October 2018 I took it easy today. After breakfast I helped Jana with her phone and we had a good conversation meanwhile. After that she showed me around in the old city and we had lunch together. In the evening I watched a series.
Wesseling – Bonn 15 October 2018 When I woke up I didn’t had a host for tonight, so I sent a few messages, made tea and packed my bag. Pretty quick I had a response wich made me happy. On the foto below you can see that the water level in the Rhine is very low. It makes it easy to camp on the river banks but it is bad for the environment, shipping (scheepvaart), and for the drinking…
Köln – Wesseling 14 October 2018 Leaving Mirjam (my host) & her housemates was difficult because they took good care of me. I walked to a park into the unknown. When I left the park I was suddenly walking in open field. I saw on the horizon a big flame. The flame appeared to be sort of my guide during the day. There was also a petroleum kind of smell. It was a bit sick making. The moon was exactly…
Köln 13 October 2018 I went to the city center for a bit of sight seeing. On the way to the center I found this cute ‘book shelf.’ On the main square I visited the big Dom of Köln Inside there where a lot of painted windows, but this one stood out because it had no painting only beautiful colors. On the way back to my host I walked over this manhole cover. Another one for my weird…
Dormagen – Köln 12 October 2018 My day did not go quite as planned, Julia my host is a dentist and I have pain in one of my molars. She was so kind to take a look at it. Even though it was busy. They took an x-ray and said one of my molars is infected, but because it was busy they did not had enough time to do it. So next week I have to go again to a…
Neuss – Dormagen 11 October 2018 This morning I woke up in my tent on the river Banks of the river Rhine. I made breakfast, which was actualy the leftover from yesterday: macaroni with haxenfleisch. It was beautiful weather. Just when I left I met an middle aged man, who was a local and he sad that I should take a small path on the left and not follow the asfalt road as my navigation said. And he was totally…
The last past days I have been to Kempen, Krefeld and Neuss. The new top foto is taken in Krefeld. Here is a small impression.
