Altglashütten Day 2 - 29 May 2019

Serviced Dave at a nearby stellplatz and did a shop at Lidl all in Altglashütten. Decided we would stay here again tonight and go bike riding tomorrow as the forecast is better than today. Afternoon spent walking to and from a waterfall that wasn’t that impressive, however it didn’t rain and ended

Altglashütten Day 2 - 29 May 2019

29.05.19 - Yesterday I had a headache for a lot of the day - bonus was not only did my husband cook a Thai green chicken curry for tea - he did the dishes too!

Went to bed early at about 10pm - it didn’t just rain - it poured, pelted, whatever you call it - was very noisy in Dave!

This morning Tintin drove for about 3 minutes to the stellplatz for emptying and filling - only 50c for water today! Then went about another 5 minutes down the road to Lidl and did a fairly small shop. However, multiple bars of chocolate as they were on offer - rude not to!

We then drove back to Altglashütten where we were last night. After lunch of a very industrial rye bread baguette, we went walking.

We’d looked at the grim forecast and decided we couldn’t be governed by it and just took our coats and a brolly each. Walked for about 2-1/2 hours - nearly 13,000 steps according to my phone.

Lovely light ginger cat rolling around in a fenced in garden, so couldn’t touch it!

Cat flap with a difference

Passed men working on wooden houses - using the whole round logs, not just planks of wood - different!

3 large log cabins/houses going up
...and this is where the logs are coming from

We were on a mission to get to the Falkauerwassenfälle, which we did, but not a very impressive waterfall considering the amount of recent rain!

All in all, a very pleasant walk - and it didn’t rain! When I was researching this morning it said Feldberg (near where we are) is the wettest place in the Black Forest - typical! If you’re interested - Freiburg is the sunniest!

It should hopefully be good weather tomorrow, so will get the bikes out and go exploring from here, as it seems a pretty good place to be.

Threatening sky, but we’re in Dave so that’s ok.
