NCC Pertisau holiday, 27 July 2025

Karlsruhe, Germany

It was a bit dreich this morning, but the Swan Whisperer attempted a run anyway - not a success as he got a twinge in whatever body part it is he gets twinges in, and had to come back.  However, it wasn't raining, so after breakfast I went for a short walk, enjoying the geese by the lake.

We set off fairly soon after breakfast, as the SW wanted to get here (Karlsruhe) ASAP in case the aire was full.  When we started, we should have arrived by about 12:30, but there was hold-up after hold-up on the motorway, especially past Pforzheim where they are rebuilding it, and it was about 14:00 before we arrived.  We had stopped briefly for the SW to make and gulp down a cup of coffee, but that was all.  The weather didn't help - although the sun came out at times, there were also a great many heavy showers, too!

When we got here, we found there were still a couple of spaces in the aire, so that was all right.  As it's Sunday, no shops are open or anything, so I have spent the afternoon reading and answering emails and so on, and the SW has gone out for a long walk and got wet!  This device is running out of battery, so must stop.
