Our route today took us past Koblenz and Frankfurt, using
the autobahns. We encountered some quite heavy rain showers along the way and
coupled with the very busy roads and frequent roadworks it was a tiring drive.
Not until we had cleared the intriguing architecture of Frankfurt Airport did
the weather dry out. But at least it is not cold.
After lunch, whilst not actually too far from our intended
destination of Wurzburg, we ran into a monumental traffic jam and moved very
little in half an hour. Fortunately we were quite close to an Ausfahrt (exit to
you and me) so we joined a lot of other vehicles and left the autobahn. We have
a good map of Germany and a little bit of cross country on minor roads brought
us onto a decent “B” road which followed the River Main.
This was much better and after passing through several
pretty Bavarian villages we spotted another free stelleplatz at Zellingen,
which turned out to be a strengthened verge at the end of a road behind the
(closed) campsite. Again no services
although there were toilets nearby so we could empty the WC, and with 2
other vans also parked up we passed a peaceful night – that is, apart from the
main-line railway which runs along the river, although that thankfully quietened
down late on.
