The landscape has changed. The steep vineyards became hilly and large areas of arable land were added. From Bingen we were glad that it was a bit flatter next to the Rhine and our legs were allowed to relax a bit... finally found accommodation in Boppard... Rhein in Flammen in Koblenz filled the hotels.
