Crank Up Pontoon Trailer Plans

02/05/2009 Rheinradweg Tiengen - Constance - border crossings in all colors and shapes

this stage we have started with a small mountain bike trail! In search of the Rhine Tiengen we have somehow lost their way and landed in a bike park. Although this has been fun, but Unfortunately, we had the wrong wheels for such actions. So we have a heavy heart towards our next destination: the Rhine Falls in Schaffhausen.


how it started ... and ended in a mountain bike trail:-D


But the road there should be no easier: A pitch chased the other, because you could get almost alpine feel. But it should be worth it, yes, after all, are the Rhine Falls of Schaffhausen, the largest waterfalls in Europe. Still, there was every few kilometers border crossings of all kind, purely in Switzerland, out of Switzerland, purely for Deuschland, then Switzerland, then Germany. Middle of the forest in the middle of the lawn, right on the mountain ... You can make life unnecessarily difficult for real! There were so many small islands of the country that it was even a separate bicycle path - the Enklavenradweg!



is slow there is always more mountainous and the Rhine are blue! Scheeee!



One of the many border crossings ...

barely arrived and already the first disappointment: The Rhine Falls are not in Schaffhausen, but in Neuhausen. Second disappointment: Due to a construction site could not be reached on the observation deck, and in general, but that it is the largest waterfalls in Europe are actually quite puny.

The world-famous Rhine Falls of Schaffhausen!


So we rode fast towards Constance. On the way to an idyllic village lined up to the other. Especially nice way, Stein am Rhein.


The City Council of Stein am Rhein!

Just arrived in Constance
it poured down with rain and if that is not enough, we were able to still find a hotel. So we phoned in the pouring rain through the whole list of accommodation in order to land in a hotel with flair and '60s-year course only was the presidential suite for exorbitant sums of money freely. The prize money was clearly bad, even our mood. Unfortunately, there were not many alternatives, so really none. The wheels we still had to park on the roof (?!?!), completely frustrated we did then in search of a hearty dinner.

On a roof top ...

But there apparently was on this day state of emergency in Constance, of course, all restaurants were packed with tourists. So we are off to the next and Indians have won there the last place. Unfortunately, a small misunderstanding has made the food for human consumption (I said to the Indians "please very sharp," he understands "Indian spicy" which was synonymous with "so sharp that you will taste after the first spoonful of nothing more-aggressive" ).

Boah was the focus ...
