Berlin and into Poland
Thankfuly, managed to find way out of Berlin a lot more easily than finding my way in. Made 50 odd miles to Youth Hostel in Bad Sarrow, only to be told they had no spare beds. Receptionist directed me to farm over the road which did rooms. Well, the 'rooms' turned out to be an old caravan which I guess is used by farm workers. Anyway too knackered to sort anything else so walked round to hotel nearby which was closed. Ended up going to Netto (like Lidl) and bought rolls and beer for grub. Next day lovely 30 odd mile ride round lakes and wooded area to brilliant Youth Hostel in Bremsdorf. Had a long chat and beer with fellow cyclist Oliver, who comes from Bavaria. He is on is way to Istambul via Ukraine. Left Bremsdorf and made nearly 60 miles over Polish border to lovely town Zielona Gora. Just going out to sample Polish beer!

Glad to hear you are now safely in Poland, the caravan sounds interesting to say the least. Reminds me of the brilliant time we spent in Berlin, what a fascinating city especially the Kreutzberg area we were staying in. Bohemian and alternative; Happy days.
ReplyDeleteTom, Ezzy, Frank and I have been to a festival in the Westerpark this afternoon. It was an experience, full of bikes, prams and crowds of people! Then we finished the day with a Moroccan tagine and tomorrow I am on Frank minding duties.
