The plan was good. Tour with 3 means of transport. By bus from Meisdorf to Gernrode, by steam train to Alexisbad and by bike comfortably through the Selketal home. At the bus stop on time, the bus also on time. Unfortunately we can't take the bikes with us, there were already two prams on the bus, more doesn't fit in. …

Today I did the first cautious tour after my fall. I have to take it slowly, it's not really good yet. The Selke valley is very beautiful, it smells good and there are lots of flowers. The Selke has a lot of water, you can see it clearly at the Selkefall.

We made the most of our free day and went from Meisdorf to Alexisbad. The mausoleum looks very mystical in the morning and we set off along the Selke through the forests and the leaves start to change color.

Today it worked once again with a bike tour through the Selketal. Just drive off and enjoy. The Selketalbahn even passed through Mägdesprung. Always a highlight. Then there was a vintage car rally in Meisdorf. On to the next tour 👍
