Nice, cozy round. Unfortunately, everything on the Loreley plateau is being redesigned at the moment. In part it is already finished, in part it is still being excavated. But it was still very quiet now. Also on the way at the viewpoints 😁

On the way there were also a few homemade cookies and this time we also took a detour across the Loreley plateau to …

Finally some sunshine and no rain. We took advantage of this and after dinner we set off for a walk around the Leiselfeld and the Loreley.
