    It's just a transition.
    Notice the serious words:
    From the hour, from the place
    You are driven by an implanted urge.
    Death is life, death is the gate.
    Everything is just a transition.
    These thoughtful lines from a stranger are in Hastedt on the bridge of the Bremen Weser weir.

    At the beginning of the pedestrian bridge on the Weser weir there is a sculpture showing a Janus head (Roman god of the beginning and the end) with two faces. One face looks back, upstream, towards the old year, and one forward, towards the sea, towards the new year.

    For me it is a nice start to a bike tour: over the Weser weir, look at the lock from above and then continue left on the Weser upstream towards Thedinghausen or Verden or downstream towards Neustadt, Woltmershausen or Lemwerder on the Weser cycle path. At the Weser weir there is also the Paulaner where you can enjoy nice coffee and cake before the journey continues ...
