A “Sunday morning” departure after a chat with a Brit couple
going “the other way” along the Romantische Strasse. We noticed how very quiet
everywhere was, despite it being a glorious warm morning, until we got to
Feuchtwergen where they were celebrating a (beer) festival. Of course it’s the
season of Oktoberfest and the place was heaving. Cars were being parked up to
2km out of town and there was NO chance of getting onto the stellplatz! We didn't particularly want to stop anyway, but
it did hold us up for a while.

Dinkelsbuhl - most places have a tower gateway |
Next place on the agenda was the attractively named
Dinkelsbuhl and indeed what we saw of it through the heavy mist that had suddenly
dropped down looked nice. However the only m/h parking places were too short
for us and we would have blocked everyone else in so decided to give it a miss.
So once again playing hunt-the-road-sign (the signposting for
the R/S is very hit and miss, quite often confirming you are on the route but
not actually giving any directions) we continued a very pleasant drive to
Nordlingen, another walled town. Plenty of (free) parking here so we stopped
for lunch, intending to explore afterwards. But for no apparent reason we
realised we were both very tired so decided to stay put and have a snooze in
the sun………..
After tea we finished off the last of the NCIS boxed DVD’s
and our day ended there.
