Ulm - Günzburg

Photo 1: I greeted this group of young men by the "Ulm" monumental letters. They answered me in English. I asked where they were from. Belgium. I then said that I had just recently walked through through country. The ensuing conversation led to a God-talk and a prayer. I did not have so many conversations with people while walking through Belgium, but because I had done so, it opened the way for this encounter.

Photo 2: This was the only Snail-Trail where I did not have any encounters with Jewish people. I did, though, talk with this group from "Christians on the Side of Isreal".

Photo 3: The whole day today I would walk along the Danube River.

Photo 4: I crossed the border today into Bavaria, the southeastern German state where I live. Just five more hiking stretches until I reach home.

Photo 5: Günzburg on the Danube where I will stay Saturday and Sunday night...
