October 23 Dreieich

October 23 Dreieich

It rained again last night. Both water drops and walnuts fell on the roof during the night and early morning. This morning I heard several barges going up or down the Main River, but didn't manage to catch one on film. They are not noisy vessels, they make more of a hum than a roar.

Today was devoted to cleaning Gracie in preparation for her return to Frankfurt tomorrow. We couldn't manage to get to the Shell station we found yesterday, but did find a station with a vacuum. After getting all the crumbs and sand out we programmed Lori to take us to our next campsite, a site close to Frankfurt where we could complete the cleaning, do laundry and have showers.

It didn't take us long to get to Dreieich. We chose our site, the sun came out and we scrubbed and cleaned and scrubbed and cleaned. We also did a load of laundry and had showers. Tomorrow morning we will return Gacie to McRent and then explore Frankfurt for a couple of days before returning home on Monday.
