Kurbad Bad NeuenahrWe spent one more day in Ahrweiler and Bad Neuenahr. We visited a foodfair in Bad Neuenahr but only mastered a piece of plum cake, not feeling for any fatty food.Next day we took leave from the nice people in Ahrweiler. We had a glorious stay there. After a good breakfast we left Ahrweiler and went further north direction Holland We landed in a little place called Tubbergen. It is in Twente, close to Hengelo, where I spent the first twelve of so years of my live. Up to a certain point the GPR worked well and we enjoyed the route it had set out for us. We had a mixture of Autobahn and country roads that gave us a good variety of scenery and traffic. Roadworks sent us twice to dead ends but it will find you again and brings you back on the right track. We had a couple of stops, nature and coffee breaks. The 250 kilometres trip took us longer for we were sent through some townships that had so many traffic lights, I never thought was possible, most of them were red. Around 2.30 p.m. we landed in Tubbergen. We could see on the GPR the

having his meal little flag that shows you the place you have to be, but it did not see the road block that stopped us of entering this particular road. It soon found another way, that went through such tiny laneways you had to wait for oncoming traffic. Finaly we thought that is it, we are clear, not so, we finnished up at a dead end, where people were sipping coffee and enjoying their piece of cake suddenly saw this french car at their table. They just stared at us in disbelieve. Lucky, we found a small opening between a few chairs and the object blocking the road. This was a close shave, we nearly had coffee and cake in the car. Not long after we arrived at the right place. Settling in did not take long, we even had a small terrace with a couple chairs and a glass of nice red. Tomorrow we will look around the place and see what it is like. Till than Liz & Allan
