Tourists

Hanging. Suddenly feel yesterday's fill. We were going to catch the 10:19 am into Trier. But we're going to wait until we stop with the hot and cold sweats. This happens just too often. Forgetful of where we are by five pm is not a sensible strategy. Be Sunday.

Most of the day was sultry (35°) in the extreme, we ducked into museums, cafés, terraces, ice cream parlours trying to keep cool. Eventually we crossed the Mosel over the Roman Bridge on both sides. Found the Rathaus and I think the architecture of something built by the National Socialists near a school. A route behind the Dom took us to the North Gate and Saint Simeon's Abbey - which was closed. Then I had a sudden attack diarrhoea in the main market square and it seemed a good time to return up to Irsch on the 84 (49 minutes past). As I pack away for another summer it tries to rain. Friday until Sunday is enough for Trier. It is a compact city.

There was very little open today so it was very quiet on the wegs and straßes and I didn't lose the plot.

We've got quite a long time to kill tomorrow between check out and the 10 pm flight so we'll look at a few more Galleries and Museums like two well behaved tourist. Booking the coach tickets online is a huge saving. €24 for 2 persons - we paid €44 for 2 coming from the airport.

Now I am bored of Bratwursts and senf. There is a part of me who wants Bio green stuff for Monday - after the traditional German Frühstück provided excellently by Herr und Frau (Theo and Martha) - I am on raw, green and nutritious.

The rain hangs back, but now there are rumbles of thunder. A change is coming. My European blood has been boiling enough!
