Today we were to drive to Oberwiesenthal but ended up at Olbernhau instead. DB awarded himself the award for dumb and dumber today. He hates German spelling he is always getting it wrong. Today he put the wrong location in GPS. After an hours drive we were still an hour from our destination. Hehe. Which made for a very entertaining conversation with the Tourist Info guy. We asked for hikes near there and he said there weren’t any. We were supposed to be in a skiing location with at least 8 hikes. We eventually made it there.

Whilst driving throughout Germany there have been cornfields everywhere, today was no different. We have seen lots of cows but they eat pork a lot but we haven’t seen any pigs yet. We travelled the cutting edge of Czech border today. It follows the smallest creek.

As we were driving to the top on the side of the road was a couple of beavers carved out of tree trunks.

A couple of poignant phrases from DB today.
“I hate these places that you can drive to the top.”  Lucky for us today though a drive was all we wanted. It was an amazing view at the top. Finally saw a pig this afternoon but it was carved out of a tree stump.
” This is far removed from the tourists of yesterday.” He really does like to get off the beaten track. A bit further  today than intended.

We went to watch Benny’s ballet again tonight which was really good again.

Tomorrow we are headed with Benny to Berlin.
