Monday, 7-30 to Ludwigshafen

An interesting and fun day. We rode five hours in extreme heat to Ludwigshafen, near Mannheim, chosen because our niece Carol and her husband Brian could meet us there with only about an hour of driving. We had a good visit with them and they took us out to a good German dinner in a biergarten.

Ludwigshafen is a busy, gritty small city, but it is also kind of a company town. It is the corporate headquarters of BASF, the giant chemical company. It turned out BASF even owns and operates the excellent hotel we stayed at.
