Thank Goodness for Wet Weather Gear!

Although I look like the Michelan Woman in them, when it's pouring buckets in Germany I am so happy to be sitting warm and dry on the back of the bike. Steve and I spent the morning chatting away during a torrential downpour while crossing Germany yesterday.

Germany, like Belgium, is very tidy. Steve likes it here. Mercedes littered everywhere. It is also the only place we've been so far where Steve is a slow driver! We were doing 90 down the motorway yesterday and we were the slowest vehicle there!

We took a different route avoiding the autobahn this trip and it was much nicer - less boring roads!

Big day today, three alpine passes to cross and then on to Italy!
