.. but we also had a lot of fun! The Easter Weekend we had a family reunion in the Eifel (Germany). Early in the morning, when the rest of the family was still waking up, Janine and I made went out to make short MTB-trips. Rain, mud...We stayed at Einruhr. That's a small place at the Obersee; one of the Barrier Lakes of the Rur. It sounds like a perfect spot for watersports, but as the Obersee is a reservoir for drinking water, any recreational use of the lake is prohibited: the Germans are very straight with regulations. Even swimming isn't allowed. But for hiking and biking it's a perfect spot. Especially because the former Military Camp Vogelsang is since January 2006 no longer a restricted area! Now you can bike on trails that where over 60 years the playing ground for military vehicles. It's a strange idea in such a romantic landscape...
