Day 50 Balkans Trip
Day 50 Balkans Trip
Had a day out in Dresden. Looked at some of the sights, shops and then looked at the winter markets. There was about 4 of them within close proximity of each other. So Glühwein with Amaretto was consumed at them all. Then we found an outside bar to have a couple of beers, some food and a good natter. https://www.britannica.com/place/Dresden-Germany https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dresden https://i.imgur.com/EkeEoDql.jpg https://i.imgur.com/9MCqPjvl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/unIoKdEl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/CaKrI1Dl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/oONRK72l.jpg https://i.imgur.com/9HsbWpRl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/OmmkaCkl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/GeOAaCMl.jpg |

Day 51 Balkans Trip
Day 51 Balkans Trip
Went to visit Colditz Castle today. The place is really big…bigger than what I thought it was going to be. They have 2 museums which are not very big and you can walk round them in about 45 mins. The price was 4 Euro to get in which I thought wasn’t too bad. Glad I went to see it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colditz_Castle https://i.imgur.com/XinNvdsl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/VMOCA4Xl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/emkjVcul.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Gai389ll.jpg https://i.imgur.com/AtJkEnEl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/rotwhB7l.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ePNqldxl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/oTojT1ul.jpg https://i.imgur.com/NYkmf5nl.jpg |

Day 52 Balkans Trip
Day 52 Balkans Trip
Didn’t do a lot today. Went in to Dresden for some food and just relaxed. I have a long journey ahead, starting tomorrow. About 540 miles to get to my ferry. But I am doing it over two days and more than likely stay on the Autobahn due to the unpredictable weather. Wayne |
Cheers Wayne realy enjoyed this , have a safe run home :D

Day 53 Balkans Trip
Day 53 Balkans Trip
Not a lot happened today, just a lot of miles on the autobahn. Covered over 300 miles. But I am glad I choose to use it because between the 100 and 250 mile points it pretty much bounced it down all the time. But that is only 6 days in just under 8 week at this time of year so I can not complain. :nono: Got a hotel for the night on the outskirts of Dortmund, on the map it is called All Seasons Hotel but it is an Ibis Styles N51.49632 E7.32861, quite expensive for what you get, but breakfast is included. Tomorrow is the last leg on the mainland, about 200 more miles to cover to the ferry. Day 53 Graupzig to Dortmund area Wayne |

Day 54 Balkans Trip
Day 54 Balkans Trip
Not really an awe inspiring day sat on the autobahn but a dry one at least. The weather was really nice, the sun was out but it was a bit chilly. The roads weren't too bad but I did hit a tail back around Essen which I was able to carve my way through with ease apart from one German in his Merc who saw me and closed the gap! T@@ser. On the ferry now waiting to leave Belgium. I have a short journey tomorrow and I am expecting :rain: :rofl: Day 54 Dortmund to Zeebrugge https://i.imgur.com/sxm5DHnl.jpg Waiting for Check-in to open Wayne |
Excellent RR.
We are expecting more reports to read. So, its time to start planing, isn't? :) Have a safe trip to home. Petre |

Day 55 (Final Day) Balkans Trip
Day 55 (Final Day) Balkans Trip
Horrible night on the ferry, rough sea crossing, felt crap. Docked 45 mins late due to high winds, had to get the tugs to push us into the berth. Once off the ship it was a quick 45 mins home and the mundane practice of unpacking….don't you love it! I will work on a summery and post shortly Wayne |
