It wasn't just me who wanted to use the announced warm summer day for a tour, so I grabbed this tour from Marcus (thanks for that) and went to the Black Forest. By the time I started at 14:00 the sun had already disappeared.
Started in the district of Michelbach where two Halloween fans are obviously fighting who can scare …

We quickly found a tour, and so Sergej and I drove to the start in the morning, where …

After a pleasant break, unfortunately in the shade and with a light wind, we made a wide arc past the old quarry and down …
