Nice-weather tour with a planned stop at the bakery and along the Werratal cycle path. Drove past a "honey stand" and bought a glass of honey there (0:30 h / 23.9 km/h)...🍯☀️

Conclusion: No matter how big or small the tour is, if you keep your ears and eyes open, you will always discover something new...😎
