It was a beautiful round trip. Unfortunately, we were surprised by heavy rain and had to cut the tour short because we were soaked.

Arrived in Lüneburg today. The room wasn't ready yet, so I quickly hopped on my bike and went for a quick ride in and around Lüneburg. We arrived in sunshine, of course, but during the ride it started to rain. It wasn't quite as bad. It's definitely more fun with sunshine. Stay cheerful 😃
