When we woke up this
morning, it was raining and very cold. By 11:00 it was hailing and
the temperature had not risen above 5°C
and it was looking as though we would be spending the day in the van
reading and watching DVDs. However after lunch the sun appeared
briefly and the temperature rose to the heady heights of 6°C.
We decided to take the risk and, putting on lots of layers, hats and
gloves, we set off on a short walk around the village. We were very
lucky – the rain held off and the sun shone most of the time, so we
extended the walk to include some of the lovely countryside and views
over the Harz mountains. Then it was back to the campsite and put on
Henrietta's heating to make it cosy.
There was a red sunset,
so we hope for better weather tomorrow.
