Today was a very cultural day with 2 art galleries. Entry to these was free with the Panorama ticket that we had bought 2 days ago. The first was the National Museum of Wroclaw which had art from the 1200s.  When we arrived there after our bike ride we saw there was a nice cafe…

It was Sean and Lisa’s 31st wedding anniversary and we were all going to have a special day. First we did some sightseeing and cycled to cathedral island. There were many churches there but the first to check out was Wroclaw cathedral.  It was very impressive with its very bright windows. It had been mostly…

About 11am we got on our bikes and it was already getting hot. It was a tough cycle in the heat to the other side of town to Hydropolis – a museum about water. It was in a part of the old Wroclaw water works so very appropriate.  Old Wroclaw Water Works There was a…

We had a good sleep at our free spot near the road bridge in Wroclaw.    After 9am we drove back and parked outside the campsite and had a coffee at the on-site cafe. We got checked in and after our coffee the pitches were free to drive into.  We are right on the water…

We were all up early and ready to go on our bikes at 9.30am to Colditz Castle. We were quite excited as we had all watched the Colditz series in the 1970s. Sean has been reading books on Colditz and watching videos to update himself on it.  After a 10 minute bike ride we arrived…

In the distance from our aire in Eisenach we could see Wartburg Castle. It looked impressive and we read it was on the UNESCO World Heritage list so we had to visit it. The parking was mega expensive at 12 euro so we left 1 van at a shopping centre and took only 1 up…

We woke up the next day in Wetzlar after our big day at Nürburgring and drove around 200km east to our next destination of Eisenach. We found the best 2 shady spots on the aire next to the Fritz Berger camping shop and motorhome repair shop. It is very comfortable here with good toilet and…
