As we sped back to Czechia trying to avoid the rains, we saw a double rainbow form very close to us. The pictures are taken from inside the car.

You see all those steep rocks? They look like menhirs from Asterix and Obelix. All of them have a small box on the top. Inside it is a notebook and pen.

Believe it or not, there are folks who actually scale those vertical edges. And when you get to the top, you open the box and sign your name there!!

I think I am going to pass on that one!

What a sight!!

Thru the small crack in the rocks, you can see the river, the greenlands and a fast train (red color) speeding by. If you notice the hole in the rock – it was used to anchor in the wood beams that was used to make the original bridge. The wooden bridge got destroyed and was replaced with a rockstone one.

This is upstream Elbe… leading to Czechia.

You can see the steep rocks and way down there… Elbe river flowing towards Dresden and you can see the rains coming in the horizon too!

Stopped for a cappuccino

For that we have to cross over to the Germany side of the mountains. Here we are crossing the border – not a single person in sight to check my passport.

Now for the steep climb back up

Incredible – how lush the green vegetation is. All growing out of sandstone rocks!!
