Germany 2017
It was decided that for this year's holiday, we would do a little bit of cycling in the Black Forest region of Southern Germany. We decided to take this opportunity to visit some of the castles of Bavaria, visit the 'Rheinfall' and cycle around Bruges on the way back.
Hope you enjoy the photos as much as we enjoyed the holiday :-)

We crossed over from Dover to Callais on the ferry then drove to El Rancho Criollo near to Maubert-Fontaine in the Ardennes region of France. Stayed here overnight before travelling on to Fussen the following day.
El Rancho Criollo is a horse riding ranch and the owners were very welcoming, pleasant and accommodating.
We couldn't stay at the hotel we booked (due to some family issue) so we were re-housed here for the night relatively unexpected. The owners knocked up a 4 meat feast for that evening's meal which was fantastic.
