Another day in Freiburg

Travelled: 20km
Visited: Frieburg
Stay: Frieburg- same as last night

We enjoyed our visit in Freiburg this morning, wondering around the various markets scattered around the town. We had our brathwurst sausages for breakfast and a punnet of raspberries. Got to keep healthy! 
Autum colours.







Artichoke flower.

This vegie is a mix of cauliflower and broccoli.

The left gargoyle has water coming out of his bum!

When we returned to Bluey, Mark found that the shower hose was broken so we asked the fellow looking after the parking where we could go and buy a new one. With the address in Camy and after a pit stop we were ready to go. Unfortunately along the way a car tried to squeeze his way past us and consequently didn't quite fit. The result is a broken side indicator light and a bit of a dint. He kept on driving and we followed thinking he was trying to find a spot to pull over, we quickly realised that he had no intention of stopping! So now we are on the hunt for a new light! The Ford dealer here doesn't have any in stock. Luckily a globe will still work in the interim. 
Feeling quite annoyed, as you can imagine, we were not in the mood to go on to our next destination. We returned to the parking we stayed in last night and our spot was still free, so we here we stayed and did a bit of maintenance, had a late lunch-early dinner (is there a word for that?), and then rode back into town to treat ourselves to a slice Black Forest cake and chatted to a friendly New Zealand couple.


On a technical point, I was feeling frustrated that our ipads were trying to download the new software update and used up all our mb for the day and thus putting us over the 10GB threshold for the month, resulting in our internet slowing down to 32kbps...making it difficult to do our usual blog uploads (photos will be loaded later) and researching. Luckily the month is nearly over and we have 2 days roamimg left with our French mobile plan. 
Life is full of surprises, ups and downs, but the show must go on.
