Kölpinsee to Ostseebad Sellin

I thought it might be fun to share interesting, and unusual to us breakfast offerings. Sunday morning, at Strandhotel Seerose I couldn’t figure out what the flat round disks in the right bottom corner of the picture were. So I tried one. I’m still not sure. Duke suggested turnip and I think that’s the best guess.

After breakfast we went for a walk. This lady was renting beach chairs. You pay and get a key to your chair.

We checked out at about eleven and headed towards the island of Rügen. We had quite a bit of traffic leaving the island at the draw bridge. I think it had just been up and that’s what caused the backup.

Along our drive we saw this windmill and stopped to check it out. the first documentation of a windmill here was in the 1300s. It collapsed in 1972 and was rebuilt and became operable again in the 1990s.

We are staying on the eastern end of the island of Rügen at the Hotel Bernstein. We have been very lucky with the weather this last week. After checking in we went for a walk out to the end of the pier.

    1. The weather along the Baltic coast was sunny and nice with temps around 70. I’ve been wearing short sleeves since we left the Nordic countries. It is getting cooler now. I dug out my puffy jacket to wear yesterday. Today they are forecasting a high of about 58 and no rain.
