Then I went shopping for a bit.
The weekend is coming, and I have three men at home – they need something to eat 😎😎😎🤣🤣🤣
And yes, I got it done before the rain.
When the rain stops, we'll go to the …

July 27, 2022,Kleine Einkauftour und dann am Strand entlang nach Damp wieder

First quickly after Kappeln press "evening shopping" and then along the beach back towards "home"
cycled .
And like on the Baltic Sea there is a headwind up to Kappeln, but then the whole way back I enjoyed a tailwind.

The weather is still so nice today, the boys wanted to go to the "Damp Land" indoor playground.
So my darling and I drove to Kappeln for a bit.
On the way, we bought a few things to fill our fridge.

The sun is shining, I take my bike out and ........
Yes, the "rain king" was magically attracted to the rain.
The best thing is - the sun is shining and it's raining at the same time, that's why there was 🌈 in the sky.

Today I waited until it stopped raining. Just as the sun ☀️ looked at us for a moment, I quickly rode my bike to Kappeln. Unfortunately, the weather radar was right, I came home wet. The rain clothes are already dry and the fun of driving has remained 😎😎🚴🚴😜😜

July 10, 2026,Abschied Tag von Damp und Ostsee.

Unfortunately, everything beautiful comes to an end quickly. Our vacation was also very beautiful and that's why it's already over.
Today is farewell day from the Baltic Sea.
Therefore, first cycling and then the beach.

From Wangerland, the route heads toward the Baltic Sea to Damp, which also boasts a well-developed cycling infrastructure. The final part is a pleasant tour with plenty of nature via Schuby to Kappeln. From there, the route follows the coast almost continuously, passing numerous places to stop for refreshments and beautiful beaches, before returning to Damp.
