Day # 50. Rest day in Lorrach.

         A pleasant sunny Thursday day to relax and enjoy the local attractions. Feeling much better today, after a couple nursing a heavy head cold. Even the weather cooperated, being warm & sunny. Basic housekeeping and yes, even time to catch up on the laundry. Walked down the big hill from the youth hostel into the town. Lorrach is not particularly picturesque, as at this point the Rhine valley has narrowed considerable and most of the small towns have main line and commuter trains running through their central areas. Lorrach is a good example.
           Installed hopefully the last pair of tires on the buggy, the expectation being these will carry me to the end of the Rhine river trail in Bodensee. Pretty adroit at tire replacement---two wheels replaced with tube protection strips inserted --- 20 minutes flat.....practice makes perfect.
    Accommodation confirmed in Basel.

Type of overnight lodging: Lorrach youth hostel.
Cost of lodging: 35E.
