My fourth day on holidays
Mommy said we were going for a big adventure! Her way of getting me away from the animals…
We went into Bad Schandau in the car and rented two bikes to do a cycling tour. I went in a seat on the back of daddy´s bike and got to enjoy being driven around. First we went to Königsstein and then crossed the river Elbe on a ferry because the Elberadweg was closed on our side so we couldn´t keep going. Then we went on to Rathen and had lunch there at a hotel. The food was not great but the place we had wanted to go to sent us away cause they were not opening yet for another half hour. We went back to Königsstein and I fell asleep on the way. Mommy and daddy had promised me ice cream in Königsstein but since I was asleep they were gonna go the whole way back to Bad Schandau and have ice cream there. They wanted to go back on the other side of the Elbe and did not take the ferry back over. Soon there was a sign that the Elberadweg was closed after the campsite. They decided to go to the campsite to see f it was true but the path was not closed at all and they kept going. Ten minutes later the path was closed and they had to turn back, just to be met by a group of 10 other bikers who said not to mind the signs and that they could keep going. So they followed the other bikers all the way into Bad Schandau where eventually there were builders working on the cycling path and not letting anyone pass. That´s how I got to have ice cream in Königstein after all and mom and dad cycled about 40km instead of 30 that were planned. Nevertheless we had a great day out and mom and dad were happy to be active and to have achieved something at the end of the day. Back home Frau Mandry was waiting for Paul to come out and help feed the animals so mommy said we would have time to have dinner first. She couldn´t get me to eat much because I was too excited and couldn´t wait to go back down. Going to bed was easy today as I was wrecked.
