Default A Trip With Preacherman:Hop Aboard (2)

I trust you slept well at our cozy little spot in Geneva. By tonight we will be just 1 mile from the Austrian border and that beautiful Austrian Tyrol scenery. But that's tomorrow. Today we will travel through Bern, Lucern and Zurich heading for a small campsite in Lindau, Germany. Bikes full of gas. Tent's all packed. I'm ready to go. ARE YOU?

A quick shot en-route. Hope you like the scenery
En route to Lindau

After a midday stop for eats, we are now at Lindau, Germany, this is the view from the tent

Please join me here for a meal. Great food, great service. GREAT coffee

Sit by the lake with your coffee with me. We can chat for a while. No rush. Good night, God bless. We head for Vienna tomorrow.

Sitting by the lake at the end of the day with a cup of coffee -- I can't think of anything better! Thanks for being our tour guide.

Stunning scenery, Paul. I'm not sure these old bones would react well with sleeping on the ground, but the view is certainly worth it....not to mention the ride!

As tightly packed as Europe is, you can see so much in such a short span of time. It really is amazing the breadth of beauty that you find over there
