I blame Henry Cole, who's programme on the Travel Channel called "World''s Greatest Motorcycle Rides", for this amendment.
The last programme we had on Sky+ was about the German Romantische Strasse. Places like Donauworth, Dinkelsbühl and Rothenburg ob der Tauber. So we will be in the car but the roads looked pretty open and traffic free when he did the ride.
Claire is most interested in a visit to http://www.wohlfahrt.com/index.php?article_id=1&clang=1 in Rothenburg. Depending on time and miles we may "do" one or maybe of the places.
On the run back from Prague the plan was Heilbronn and the Sinsheim Museum. This has now changed to a tour of some ancient and umbombed Bavarian towns.
Due to the vagaries of the Tom Tom mapping where Czech doesn't exist I can't actually map all the way from Prague!! So to check the distances I have to map from Waidhaus on the German side of the border!!
As a result, I have changed the booking from DJH at Heilbronn to the youth hostel at Creglingen. Creglingen is only 11 Tom Tom miles from Rothenburg and according to my Michelin map it is also on the Romantische Strasse.
Two weeks to go...
