day8 23/04 Laufenberg 54k393 Basel

Climbed out of Laufenberg to enjoy a backward gance

then the crossing sequence was CH D CH Rhein CH
Along the way found some wetlands behind the Rhein embankment with many nesting swans and ducks

Arrived in Basel, chatted to some cyclists, and got advice to stay in Klein Basel, the N bank  - -  lower cost hotels, facing the evening sun, and with a view of the Aldstadt.

Just as I was finishing, I was forced into a high kerb by a fat Merc, this time incurring significant abrasions.   Nothing broken, all treatable from my medicine bag.
