Mike's post made me think of posting this. As it's now no longer ideal biking weather (for Mrs & me anyway) --even bloody SNOWING today-- we've taken to doing some walks. Last Sunday, it was Forchheim Bahnhof to the Brauhaus am Kreuzberg, to partake of their most fabulous Saphir Pils on their last day of the season, as well as decent enough carp. < http://tinyurl.com/fo-kreuzberg-zufuss > Then down the hill to catch the bus at Stiebarlimbach, where Roppelt was heaving in the evening, and where we were the only two people on the bus until it got to Forchheim. Yesterday, I decided to lunch at Roppelt's, whose carp is about the best I've ever had. The train to Forchheim left me with 20 minutes to wait for the 265 bus, so I walked a couple of km along its route to kill the time and energy, and where the bus arrived 3 minutes late. < http://tinyurl.com/8wdszwa > The Pfefferkarpfen was fantastic, not fatty or greasy (tip from kellermates Gerhard & Uschi: go on Friday, after the Wed & Thu Ruhetage, when the fryer oil will certainly be freshly changed), and also very nicely priced. And the filtered, CO2-pumped (I think) version of the Kellerbier was better than I've ever had it there too. And the aforementioned Kellermates turned out to be there, so, fun. My plan had been to then walk 8 or 9 km to either Eggolsheim or Buttenheim or even 11+ km to Forchheim for the train back home, but that turned out to be into a stiff, cold wind. But in the other direction, with the wind, (Englisch "Schwanzenwind" tail wind), bus 205 could take me from Aisch or Adelsdorf to Erlangen, albeit more slowly. So that's what I did, and got to the stop in Aisch just as the rain started. And as the bus arrived. < http://tinyurl.com/stieb-aisch-zufuss > The rain hasn't stopped since, except to turn to non-sticking snow. Other walks? |
