Rhein Lore Lay

Taken a day off and went in the sunshine along the Rhine. Images Lore Lay rocks and castles. Unfortunately, only out of a moving car.

Pictures from a moving car, but what a car! The perspective taken from the cockpit of a Pagoda makes the difference :D

 Hello Peter, We drove the same road a few years back in a Peugeot 407. Looks much nicer through your Pagoda's windshield :)

Hello John and Rolf Dieter

Here now Sahara weather, to hot to drive. I hope next week we get time for a longer trip.
John, you go to Willingen ?

Hello Peter, No, I am sorry to say we will not be able to make it to Willingen :( We have had a trip to France in September followed by a Mediterranean cruise planned before the 50th celebration was announced otherwise we would have been there.

Hope things cool down a bit for you,

John
