BONN TO COLOGNE (KOLN) 6/30-FRI. LAST DAY 37 km. 9:30-12:30

Breakfast & meeting-the 4 of us are the only ones who attend. Not sure it helps us that much. K & A left before A, J, P & P. 1st day that we never saw each other. Cold to start-60 degrees with slight head wind. Do not stop today except to take pictures of goats, ducks & chickens in the same enclosure. A little bit of everything today-shady bike paths, industrialized areas, gravel, river, town roads with traffic. Stopped 2 times to ask for help. Last biker takes us to the Rhine. See MS OLYMPIA around 12 getting close to big bridge where it’s going to dock. We stop for lunch-a candy bar and water. Get to boat at 12:30-take nap. Meet John and Amy for snacks at 4. They had a little confusion keeping their group together, but we were all successful in finding the boat and completing our adventure. We biked a total of 130 miles.

After snack go visit nearby Catholic Cathedral and stay for part of the mass. Fantastic last dinner with baked Alaska for dessert. Can’t say enough about what a fantastic job everyone did.

I had 2 desserts

Give my blog cards to our new friends MOLLY & GLENN from Minnesota; MAGGIE & VIC from Brighton, UK & MINEKE & JAAP from the Netherlands. There were around 100 people on board. Very nice to make new friends.

Go back to room to pack. Breakfast is at 6:30 & luggage needs to be outside our door by 7:30. Armand is asleep.

This is not a good picture of VIC & MAGGIE. MOLLY is right-I need to use my phone pictures. I have a really good picture of MOLLY and GLENN on my phone. I just need to have someone show me how to put it on my blog! You can also go to You Tube where you can see Vic Ellis One Man Band-I really enjoyed seeing him play all those instruments at ONE TTIME.
