We had 'web cam' for breakfast!
Once we had had our fill we braved the wind and set off through the village waving goodbye to the 14 stork nests we passed. It was very hard going and we deserted the main Radweg and took the road. This gave us a bit more shelter for a few miles. It was back beside the river as we entered Wittenberge and we struggled to make headway. We were grimacing as we cycled but the cyclists coming in the opposite direction were grinning. (Beaming more like it!) If Derek had been with me there would have a few choice words directed at the opposition but as it was Jenny we had to wish them 'Guten Morgen'.
After a coffee in the town we visited the Tourist Information to ask if there was a cycleway on the main road. Thankfully there was and the trees provided some shelter so we slowly made progress.
As we neared our destination of Domitz we saw two pairs of cranes in the fields. These sightings raised our spirits as we continued to battle against the wind.
It was with some relief that we arrived at our Pension. Three beers later the world seemed a much friendlier place.
Our evening meal was taken in 'Martin's' where the host not only served us with a delicious meal but also provided us with live music. Phew, quite a hard day.
