More... Rain

Today I did not get to ride again because of the rain. This weather is just horrible. Once it rains one day, it seems like it rains forever. The only thing that made today better than others is that it was a holiday so I did not have to work today. Unfortunately, that also meant that not a thing was open in Germany today.

This gave us the perfect opportunity to go to Roermond, Netherlands to check out an outlet center there. Of course, about 5,000 other German's decided to do the same thing so a 1.5 hour drive, became 2.5 hours, but it was worth it. We got to walk around a nice shopping center with great stores. My wife made out really well with some new sneakers.

One of the coolest parts of the trip was as we were traveling up the A 61, we came upon a group of 8 Polizei Motor Officers. For a while, they were right in front of us, it felt like we had our own escort going!
