There are lots of crosses like this one positioned on the tips of dramatic limestone peaks
Giant wall, giant orange slug (in France I had one nestled sleepily into the fork of my bike one morning)
Marching bird, Matthew doodling
Picnic next to Interesting Man on Raft who was working hard but we were not sure exactly what he was doing.
Below are some shots from a day spent in Ulm (the birthplace of Albert Einstein!). Ulm Minster has the highest church steeple in Europe. The views up the tower were amazing, and we were able to look down onto the church bells and stare gargoyles in the face. It was quite nervewracking climbling up the slender highest part of the tower, where narrow stairs wind tightly on and on until you get to the top, dizzy and feeling like the solid ground below looks quite nice and safe.
The friendly, floppy bunny at our campsite who Matthew keeps wanting to feed ("do you think he would like a banana skin?")
pretty nails (how do you have such nicely manicured nails on a cross-european bike journey?!) and BUNNNNNNNY!!! Did you put him in your saddle bags?
