29 Apr -- Bike Riding in the Eifel

I took the kids out for a bike ride this afternoon.  We started in Philippsheim. 

 I was glad we "braved" the intermittent rain sprinkles and went for a ride.

 Jane and Henry got along just fine in the trailer together once Jane got tired of riding.

 Charlie did great on his bike...but at 2.1 miles from our car he had a HUGE wipeout!  We had literally JUST turned around to head back to the car.  He was riding down a paved portion and pretty much flipped over the handle bars.  I thought he had lost at least one tooth, but they were all still there, despite being covered in blood.  "Charlie, your teeth are red," said Jane.

 So Jane jumped out of the trailer and rode her balance bike 2.1 miles back to the car.  Such a big help!






Charlie ate mashed potatoes and sliced peaches for dinner.
