Day 3 – Mannheim

We left the car park around 09:00am this morning. Wanted to get away early as I was concerned that the car park would fill with cars as people arrived for work and they would make it difficult getting out onto the road. As it turned out we did not need to worry. We had a pleasant enough night.
 
After filling with fuel soon after leaving we travelled the 430 km to the stellplatz close to where Claudia and Hartmut live. We arrived mid afternoon and called Claudia after a brief discussion we arranged a time to be picked up to go for dinner. We were surprised and delighted to know that we were dining at the Greek restaurant 100m from their house. Some years before we had taken Mum and she had a few drinks. She still sends them a christmas card. On arriving they offered us a bottle of Ouzo to give Mum as a gift on our return. Lets hope she does not get a liking for the drink!!
 
We had a great night chatting, eating and drinking before being returned to the van. We were given an invitation for breakfast in the morning.
