Into the Fatherland and back

Big loop into Germany and along the Mosel to Zeltingen Rachtig where Al stopped last year. The attraction is lunch at the Kloster Machern, but the 60 miles or so of roads to get there are excellent. Stop at the viewpoint overlooking Piesport and its another picture opportunity of a river bend.

Another river another bend, this time Mosel

Down the hill, over the bridge and follow the Mosel to Zeltingen Rachtig. Stop at Kloster Machern for some lunch at the brauhaus, but its alcohol free beer this time to wash it down.
After schnitzel it's back towards Vianden via Echternach and Diekirch.


Echternach - man with fountain fetish andds another to his collection. Whatever you do don't google 'fountain fetish' -good grief.


Echternach and no dodgy characters in this pic - or is there???
 
Back in Vianden, Nige opts for a chill out beer at the auberge, whilst Steve & Al risk death and destruction falling from the chairlift and have a beer at the viewpoint at the top overlooking the town & castle. Good value I reckon only 4.80 euro return ticket.


No standing on the seats please

Nige is down there somewhere, I can see him waving
