June 18, 2023,Rundweg Bostalsee

The new bike rack for the tailgate arrived yesterday. Of course I tried it out today. For starters, it's very easy around the Bostalsee. Little claim, but was still quite nice.

Hi Komootler, the Bostalsee is a well-organized recreational lake with everything you need. Beach, fun pool, restaurants, boat harbor, boat rentals, bike rentals, hotel, holiday homes, campsites, pitches and much more.
And finally I have my usual 4G network again. I have no idea what's been going on in the past few days. Maybe something was broken there.

Since I had forgotten my hat, I shortened the tour in -3 degrees and fog and ended it in the cafe

Farm holidays... Our birthday present for our middle granddaughter (and other gifts 😀) hit like a bomb 💣. Her eyes 👀 got bigger and bigger and shone when she saw where she was allowed to sleep 😴. It's a converted circus wagon. The hugs became more and more intense and she is happy 😊👧. Totally successful surprise.
