In the most beautiful weather, we went through the hilly countryside - initially along the Baltic Sea. Later, however, quite a lot of road. In sum, however, charming - and relaxed. Fish highly recommended 😋

Today in the other direction, to Hohwacht. The way there went quite well and quickly on the EV10.

Had a nice chat with the station manager at the DLRG station, also about the NATO maneuvers currently taking place and the closure of Hohwacht Bay to civilian shipping.

It's so beautiful to cycle here, you'd love to keep going forever... A beautiful tour through stunning landscapes and along the Baltic Sea coast. However, I expected a bit more from Hohwacht. It looked even better here in 2018. But still nice. 🤗👍🏻😎

Today we went only a few kilometers further to Hohwacht, where we moved into our quarters at noon. Then immediately chilled on the beach and in a beach chair. The water went with a temperature of around 18 degrees and brought wonderful cooling. A very relaxed day, which ended with pleasure in Tom's Hütte, the trendy beach bistro of Hohwacht.

On the left the abyss on the right the rape field!! In between, today's path was very narrow and very close to the abyss.
Met the ringed plover 🐦 today, this pretty bird just lays its eggs 🐣 on the beach between the stones, and mindful conservationists are on their way to secure the clutch and put up warning signs. …
