Al takes the high road and Nige/Steve the low road

After two nights in Vianden its time to head further east into Germany - Braunsfels in the Taunus. Unfortunately we get split up on the motorway again and eventually make our own way. Steve & Nige drop down to check out Cochem and Nassau whilst Al charges over to Braunsfels and has a ride around but we all get to the Brauhaus Obermuhle with a couple of minutes of each other.
The digs are a a brewery and top class, just having been refurbished. Quick wash & brush up and the bar opens at five. First beer is a black beer - ok, second is Weizmann for Al and pils for Nige. Steve can't drink beer so its apple wine (cider) and then Mosel wine.
 
Not happy - he lost me!!

Up into town and a couple in the the Gasthof von Thurm - great local, we meet some scottish guys who give us some pointers for tomorrow.
