the weather has cleared up again today…no cloud, just pure sunshine, we do have a very strong south-westerly wind, though.

after another excellent breakfast and a leisurely reading of the süddeutsche zeitung we are off to the open-air museum in klockenhagen — as it’s quite a distance and we don’t fancy using a bus with such a nice weather outside, we get two bikes from our hotel and first follow the dyke to the main part of dierhagen and then, retracing our sunday walk we go past the humongous hotel strandhotel fischland and emerge onto the path going southward behind the dyke.

once we turn westward again, we have the wind against us — which is not that bad as long as we are in the forest, but once we are past the dog oak (it looks better than its name suggests :-) we are in the open…and have to fight almost every meter against westerly wind!

we finally arrive at the open-air museum, park our bikes, pay the entry and make a bee-line for the café to warm up:-)…we have cake, a normal grog (me) and a sallow thorn grog (dorothee). the weather outside is still fantastic (despite the wind, yes) and once we’ve recharged we venture outside again and stroll through the recreated village: very fascinating stuff, lots to look at…we take our time and dive in.

around 17:00 we call it a day, mount our bone-rattlers and go back the direct way.
