 Skating along river Saar.


 Passing the railway station in Merzig.
 A short pause (for navigation?) in Merzig.

 Hans-Georg and Klaus always gave us first class service along the way.

 Uphill.


 More uphill.
 Even more uphill.
 The same as above, no comments.
 A service car waited for us with our shoes since we were supposed to walk up the last steep hill...
 ...but I was sent away with a "You can do it on skates". Tough on rough asphalt.
 The reward on top of the hill (Saar-Hunsrück Narure Park, Weiskirchen) was supposed to be lunch but as I remember it they were to busy to serve us so we went on after a while.

 A challenging downhill part to Mandern. Thanks to Bernd G and Olaf for helping us down by blocking the intersections.
 The same as above; downhill to Mandern.
