Maybe that&#8217;s why our neighbouring car park is free?<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The pouring rain halted this morning, leaving behind a thick layer of mist over the hills in Winterberg. We climbed a little way above the town to get a look at it, the smoking chimneys and its distant ski jump, standing beside a tiny church, itself overpowered by two wooden crosses mounted along the hillside. Winterberg was clearly a winter resort town; the dull light and lack of snow portrayed it as a town in reverse hibernation, waiting for the cold and ice to awaken it. We filled our water tank, plotted in Gie\u00dfen and headed south.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;d heard that diesel prices in Germany vary by the hour and by the day, so weren&#8217;t surprised to find the first open station we came to costing \u20ac1:56 a litre, about 6c a litre over the usual prices we&#8217;d seen. We guess Sunday fills came with a premium, but held out anyway, trying the next station on route. Err, \u20ac1:46 a litre here, about 4km away? In we pulled and filled up. The next station a few hundred meters away was back up above \u20ac1:50. I guess people just can&#8217;t be bothered driving to a\u00a0slightly\u00a0further station; we saved about \u20ac5 on a single fill.<\/p>\n<p>Turns out we may need that \u20ac5. The drive south took us along single carriageway roads, about fifty-fifty trees and fields. As we swung along the winding road, water decided to pour from our under-chair tank all of the inside of the van. The following tail of drivers were probably relieved when we finally found a place to pull in and check it out. A part has broken, but we bodged it and were on our way.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately the \u20ac5 won&#8217;t just need to cover the new part, but also a speeding fine. Yup, after a year&#8217;s driving I&#8217;ve managed to get flashed. Some tiny towns along the road have 30kph signs up, along with a small 22 to 6 white sign beneath. As I tried to work out if that meant the speed was 50 during the day and 30 at night, all brain function must have been used up, and my accelerator foot took advantage. At 60kph the question was moot and the flash went off, the camera looking like something from Flash Gordon. Hurumph.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5686\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00745.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5686\" class=\"wp-image-5686 size-content\" title=\"DSC00745\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00745-620x264.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"264\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5686\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Err, eh, what speed is it?<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_5687\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00746.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5687\" class=\"wp-image-5687\" title=\"DSC00746\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00746.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00746.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00746-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00746-174x131.jpg 174w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00746-70x53.jpg 70w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5687\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oh, bugger it.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Parking alongside the swimming pool in Gie\u00dfen is free on Sundays, and the area was pretty much packed with cars.

We headed back to Dave for a read and to write, before taking a wander over to the adjacent fair. Another first for both of us, this is the fair&#8217;s last night and half of it is being taken down as the rides still run. On one spinning ride a group of four men are almost dancing out the act of removing the rear framework and paintings, one of them climbing high with no protection and handing down heavy girders to his mates below.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5692\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00788.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5692\" class=\"wp-image-5692\" title=\"DSC00788\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00788.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00788.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00788-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00788-174x131.jpg 174w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/DSC00788-70x53.jpg 70w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5692\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The last throes of a fun fair.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Tomorrow will be interesting, as we&#8217;re off to the famous Nurburgring.
