After yesterday’s highs, today was somewhat ordinary. The countryside was flat, given that this was probably a large flood plain before the Danube was contained. The towns I went thru were all very nice – how damming does that sound! – but closed as it is Sunday. When we did the Danube cruise 3 years ago we passed thru this area at night. I can understand that.
I felt a rather naughty and evil joy when i came across an e-biker whose battery had died somewhat far from town. It would be interesting to see how e-bikes have changed bicycling along the Danube. I suspect quite a lot as probably 70 per cent of the cyclists I saw were on e-bikes.
Tonight I’m camped right next to the Danube, just 30 is outside of Passau. It’s a campground run by volunteers Andy geared to cyclists – yeah! Across the river is a river cruise boat that’s probably headed to Regensburg later.
Anyway, here’s what my little campsite looks like. Cruise Boat is under the bridge. Time for a cup of tea.
