Yet another lovely day in Frankfurt. The markets are bustling with people the sun is out and I can feel a starbucks afternoon coming on.

First Pie of the winter. Yum yum

Lemon cake. Have slight Rising issues but still not bad. Baking soda where are you.

This is what we are climbing today. Aughhhhhhh Firstly an amazing walk with the dogs through the woods it the very fresh morning dew. So slight disaster. It turns out if you don't go for 7 months you might not be quite as good as when we stopped. Firstly I dropped the bag with all our equipment in half way down the mountain and about 10 mins later dropped the guide book in the exact same place so off to a good start I think. Anyway we started off with a 5 on ...

At last Frankenjura. We arrived in the midnight sky only to be lit up by the brightest is moons. It about 2 degrees and still dropping. the stars are out in force like a sea of light. Stu has just got the fire going and we are planning our routes for tomorrow. No phone signal, no 3G just peace and quiet. Absolute bliss
