Down the Rhine

I took the KD ferry yesterday from Bingen to Sankt Goar, the most scenic portion of the Rhine. It was a gray day and of course you have to be very fast to sketch while a boat is going downstream. I did here what I’ve been doing on other occasions: drew in pen and filled in color later, from memory and occasionally with reference photos.

I caught the train from St. Goar to Bonn, arriving in the city in time to have a nice salad lunch before I repaired to my airbnb in the old city. I haven’t used this service at all up till now but I needed a little sanctuary to roam from before I leave for the UK.

I’ve picked up some kind of bug and the drizzly day hasn’t encouraged me to stray very far though I had a much longer than planned for walk this morning. My sweet host brought down a whole bag of different German medications; I chose one then went and bought some from the pharmacy this morning.
