Headed West

Return journeys always have a different feel; thoughts return to being home and the feeling to meander lessens. Today is about getting back into that driving mood.

I did plan in some key waypoints on the way back, the route taking me a little further south to some higher ground, a few more hills en-route to Brocken.

Some fantastic scenery in the Schulenberg im Oberharz area on the drive around the reservoir.
Dams always have a gentle side with reasonable drop to the water and a downright scary side, this one with cargo nets to presumably catch anyone falling over the edge?

 Everything suddenly getting very swiss chalet style for the overnight stop near Munden.

Weather good again, but cooler now, nice driving temperature, more like a warm breeze than feeling like I'm inside a fan oven.
