My first visit to Germany, and our first rainy day of the trip. We left Ribe, which is an amazing little historic town in Denmark after doing a short self guided walking tour. The weather was colder than what it has been and windy and by the time we were all packed up, it started drizzling. There were strong winds from the North/West and the rain got worse as we went south into Germany. The route was part of the North Sea cycling route, and in a sunny summer day would have been spectacular... We were lucky we had the wind in our back or side the entire way (the cyclists coming from the other side looked very unhappy). The border crossing into Germany was anticlimactic, no one was there to ask for any documentation. As the rain and wind got worse we were anxious to find a hotel and we did in a town called Dagebull, where tourists have access to some nice islands off the coast of Germany via ferry. I had a few requirements today for the hotel: warm, dry, hot water, good food, wi fi and laundry and I got them all, although with some challenges and delay in the wi-fi and the laundry. Tomorrow we don't know what are we doing, will depend on the weather. More to come.
