<\/a>Camping Haide is on the banks of the Neckar river. This was another “odd” site, very run-down but the facilities were of reasonable quality and clean. Having to buy a token (1 Euro) for a shower just added to the eccentricity of the place.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n Mind you, the site fees were only around 20 Euros so it was inexpensive, our pitch was just metres from the river and it was close to public transport links.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It’s around a 1km walk to the bus stop and buses run around every 20 minutes but only hourly after about 8:00pm.<\/p>\n For dinner, we ate at the Schnitzelhaus. We chose this on the basis that it is number 1 on TripAdvisor (for Heidelberg) and\u00a0we wanted some decent German meat. Well, there is a reason this restaurant is number 1 – great food, awesome service and brilliant atmosphere.<\/p>\n We were lucky to find a table (loose definition as we were able to join a table which had space for the two of us), sharing with a group of Astrophysicists (at a conference in the Castle) and an IT Marketing lady. Conversation was as entertaining as the rest of the evening!<\/p>\n Some iconic pictures from Heidelburg, which is a truly magnificent city.<\/p>\n Wednesday and we left Bled for a near 300 mile journey to Ingolstadt and Camping “Azur” Auwaldsee. On arrival the campsite was closed for a 13:00 to 15:00 siesta (honestly, I thought we were in Deutschland).<\/p>\n What can I say about the site. Firstly it was perfectly positioned for us, because\u00a0it pushed the next part of the journey up to Nuremburg and then east to Heidelberg, thus avoiding the notorious A8 between Munich and Stuttgart. We still got stuck in a mega-jam around the A99 and in the end, took a small road North to Munich airport before re-joining the Autobahn network.<\/p>\n The approach to the site was bizarre, passing through a large commercial and industrial area to then find a green haven of the campsite. Facilities were modern and clean and the area where we set up the van was not marked out. This gave the impression that it probably doesn’t get that busy – I wouldn’t be surprised if the owners aren’t waiting for a nice real estate deal to convert the site into more commercial or office space. Price was quite expensive at more than 30 Euros for the night.<\/p>\n Still, it served our purpose also as a base to visit Munich (about 55 minutes by train) and whilst\u00a0in Munich, I was finally able to replace my worn out walking shoes! We ate dinner with friends at a nice Italian restaurant.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Overnight thunderstorms hit Heidelberg, which is no real surprise as the temperature during Thursday was north of 35 degrees with extreme humidity.
