3 o'clock and 4 o'clock

Today I really did feel I was on my holidays, at last, when everyone else was off to work. I am really proud of my 82km bike ride from home to the Rhein, along the Rhein and past the falls to the idyllic town of Stein am Rhein. Heading home from Stein I cycled through this village, which proved to be a greater turning point than I first thought. I left my camera by the fountain, cycled on, got a flat tyre, walked back, retrieved the camera, and hopped on the train home as the storm clouds opened. The church bells chimed on my second visit and I want to come again to spend a bit more time enjoying this spot. The bakery and confectionist with its home made ice-cream is another good reason to come back. I didn't have time today.
