Arnhem to Bonn



  Easy cycling through Holland.

The cycle path crosses the river often. The ferries continually go back and forth to no set time table and sometimes carry only a 3 or 4 cyclists.

The things you see ……..

Still loving the topiary.

Lunch stop over the border in Germany.




We missed the storm but had to divert away from the cycle path to avoid the downed trees. About 20 kms of damage that slowed our progress. The army had been called in to clear the worst of the damage from the towns but the cycle path seemed a low priority.

 Right on the Rhine River cycle path is the medieval city of Zons with a history dating back to 1200's.



Sunset over the river.

Me reading the small print to find out where this cycle path leads!







A real nice way to experience the Rhine River - perhaps next time.
