Into Germany ...
...via the Italian, German and French speaking regions of Switzerland means that all these pleases and thank-yous are getting very confusing. We're having a go at conversing in all the bits of languages that we know, but whether we're using the correct language to the correct person is anyone's guess! Glenn has resorted to Spanish on occasions which nobody seems to object to either. At least here in Germany everyone seems very happy to speak English. And the sun has shined all day, which is great news.
We had an early start from our Swiss hotel and a really nice journey through Switzerland, into France for a while and then into Germany. Our hotel is fantastic and right on a beautiful lake, so we've been able to spend a couple of hours in the bar sunbathing. We thought briefly of hiring a pedalo to go out on the lake, as other people seemed to be enjoying it, but then we thought 'Nah' - it looked too much like hard work. Just off for an early evening walk in the sunshine, under a cloudless sky before sampling the local cuisine and wine.
Tomorrow we've got four hours riding through the whole of Belgium and then into France to Calais and back to Blighty.
