Gone fishing! The mighty river Elbe on our left as we leave Reisa for the flat ride to Meissen.
Beautiful scenes this morning .... can you identify this crop?
Busy bees.
A good place to be a cow!
Or a sheep.
The Germans are great gardeners - vegetables and flowers, especially marigolds and dahlias.
Nearing Meissen
In Meissen, after caffe und kuchen, about to make the long slog up to the Dom, sans bikes.
The view from the Dom.
Inside the Dom.
Meissen's famous porcelain.
Off to Dresden.
Friendly locals.
Our villa in Dresden.
Salubrious digs - no cheap options in Dresden! This suite had a kitchen and dining area that we used to good effect. Located 3.5 klm from the centre proved no obstacle to hardy cyclists.
On the other hand, east Germany's penchant for cobblestones represent a serious curse for cyclists!
So many spectacular begrimed buildings in Dresden; it is hard to believe so much of it was bombed and rebuilt.
Our Lady's in Dresden - amazing Gothic / Baroque
I can do selfies - unfortunately!
Now, that's a mural.
When real men rode real bikes!
And ladies were stumped!
Farewell Dresden.
