Free and very stormy noon😅. I had to postpone my planned hike in the Palatinate Forest. Alla hopp, then to the "east" over the Rhine. The royal camp should be our goal. It was really very stormy and the sun only showed a brief glimpse, but the atmosphere was great. 😍. There was hardly anyone around and so I was …
