Rain


Thursday 6th October.

Our arrival in Germany was met with consistent, heavy rain. We leave the flat Dutch landscape for the hilly, forest terrain of the North Reine. Our 1st destination is Korbach near Kassel. Our estimated 2 hour journey climbs to almost 5 hours, when we factor in diesel and lunch stops. Plus the extra time added for pulling a caravan.
Germany proves cheaper for food, as I am able to feed all six of us for under 5€ from a local supermarket. But diesel jumps from 1.37 € to 1.47€.
By 14.30 both older girl’s patience is wearing thin. Holland has reached her sitting still limit.

Arriving at Korbach on the Edersee. A very brief reprieve from the rain allows us to set up and put the awning up. 

In my wet weather gear attaching the water.
