The Radweg
Today it is beautiful outside. I have so many thoughts and stories but alas I must get out and ride up into the woods overloking the sea. I am on the island of Rügen- in the small town of Sassnitz. Rügen has been a popular vaction spot for generations- even during the GDR days though not for westerners. It's what the island has the most of- tourists, sights, natural beauty. I've ridden almost the whole island and will likely leave tomorrow. Most of it is very sparsely populated and the first night, walking along the beach I saw a fox and a deer and some small owls silouhetted against the night sky eating insects. Yesterday I stood with my feet in the Baltic sea on sand that was like powder and squeaked when I walked. Today I'm going to try and ssee the famous chalk cliffs though I expect more tourists and tour buses than I've ever seen before in my life.
