Day 22,23 & 24 Fairytail castle and evil nazi weather expreiments

Well it rain a lot, but im still having fun meet people, at moment im sitting overlooking the rien in a little village called St Goar, there a little bit of blue in the sky so hopefully the weather gets better.

In the end i did not stay in Koln as i had planned, i have come to relize that i dont like stopping. I have no problem with the riding its the stop i dont like which couse problems as im now only 3 day ride from the wedding site and i have 10 days to kill ahhhhhhh im not sure what im going to do as i find i get bored very easily and other than taking one to pictures dont really like site seeing on my own which is why i dont like stopping. so after a quick look at koln i shot on, stared looking for a camp site around 4ish and found one in a little vally about 5 km from the rein, i set up and started cooking my pasta while drink a half bottle of wine, i've started buy a bottle aday as they only cost 99 cens and it not bad stuff plus it helps me sleep.  i was join my a german cyclist who was doing going the oppsite way to way. after a quick hello i put my washing on ( yep i started useing a washing machine its taken 27 years but it finally happened i only ever do  a 40 wash and have manged to dye all my whites blue but at least they are clean) felt them to dry under a little shelter and went to bed.

I woke at 6 o'clock to bright sunlight so decided to lay in a bit, so when i finally woke my at 9 it was raining quite havily so i stared watching Dexter season 5 ( my notebook has been a life saver) so after watching 8 episodes the rain finally had die down to a little bit of drizzy so  packed up a left. My washing from the day before was still wet which made packing quite annoying and ruined my system which pissed me of, which made me think i mite be a little OCD insetain istuations. But manged to over come this little :). i have aslo found that as im on my own most of the time there only a few thing that get me down one is find a place to stay and the other is getting lost in town but other that i find my self enjoying my self and felling quite relaxed i've even stopped worring about money not that im going crazy but my out look on life has changed im but that bothered if i dont even make to Australia i would like to but it not the main goal any more, im just live each day as it comes and have stopped trying to plan head. But any way i've gone of topic. it was today that i stated seeing the castle and it seemed like some thing out of a faity tail with the mist from the rain. it was awsome. i shot past koblenz which had a cable cart to the other side could not help thing of where eagles dares and the fight scene on top of the cable cart. kept going to till i came to a campsite in Spay as i was setting up my a tent a english voice said hello i was camped right next to a english couple and the there was all so  a germany cyclist who gave me a map of austria with all the camp sites as he had come from there and the english couple gave a 5 euros for my beer/wine fund which was very unespected plus they gave a cup of tea i almost cryied.

Today was a short ride of about 30km to st goar where i did some shoppping bought some protein bars just so Mr Mat T can stop worrying about my protein intake.  all i can say is im loving it.

  4. Hi David, I am now fully recovered from the choking session. I think you should put a health warning on your blog to say when reading this don't eat at the same time it could be detrimental to ones health.

    Matt is going to start looking at flight prices to Istanbul, you will have to let us know your timescale in all this.
