Of the promised 14 degrees, it felt like only -5 degrees remained. So today a short round without any outstanding highlights.

February 16, 2024,2401-Frühlingstour im Februar🪻🌸☀️🚲

First tour this year, at a warm 16°C from Besigheim along the Neckar to Lauffen. Through the vineyards near Neckarwestheim to Ottmarsheim and over the Hessigheim rock gardens back to Besigheim. In the rock gardens the first peach trees and rosemary bushes have already begun to bloom. A touch of Tuscany. It was really nice.

Moni and I actually only wanted to go to the street cafe in Walheim - unfortunately we didn't get a seat. Then continued to Lauffen and stopped at the beer garden on the Neckar.
