Part 2
To Gibraltar


Germany
Coming from Danmark

Sunday, July 16th, 2006

When I crossed the German border, just before nine o'clock, it was realy warm. I think it is 30 degrees Celcius.
After I cross the border I stop at a resting place with a toilet but the toilet is very filthy.

I stop a lot and because of the heat, I drink a lot too.


Stopping at rest places beside the Autobahn.

In Hamburg was a Harley treffen this weekend, with a performance of Robbie Williams so a lot of Harley riders were on their way home now. It was nice to see these groups, sometimes with very nice choppers, riding on the autobahn.


Groups of Harley riders on the Autobahn.

At a resting place, I talked with some of the Harley riders. Those two had beautiful black customised Harleys. Very nice.


Nice Harleys.

After my waterbottle was empty I had to stop more often at gasstations to buy bottles of water and fruitjuice.


My BMW at a gasstation.

Not far from the Dutch border, I was very tired again so I put the BMW on a parking and slept on the grass, in the shadow of a tree.


Here I slept for half an hour.

Via Hamburg, Bremen and Osnabrück I drive to the Dutch border, to Hengelo in the Netherlands.
