There was a wine festival there and at about 2am a lot of drunk French guys came out and started making lots of noise. Two of them came over to our tent. One poured a glass of beer over it and the other peed on the side of it. The French are so terribly charming.<\/p>\n<p>The next day we went cycling for a few hours in the hills. It was ok but we were both still feeling a little unwell from our lingering colds and various ailments. We checked out Martinswand, another rock climbing crag in the afternoon but it was only 6 degrees and a nasty wind made it feel much colder. It was beginning to rain so we left without doing any climbing and headed back to Germany.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cris.lovell-smith.com\/trips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/cyclingupcoldufirstplanvogesenmountainsfrance_resize-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cycling up Col du Firstplan (Vogesen Mountains, France) resize\" src=\"https:\/\/cris.lovell-smith.com\/trips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/cyclingupcoldufirstplanvogesenmountainsfrance_resize-3-small11.jpg\" width=\"128\" height=\"170\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/cris.lovell-smith.com\/trips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/viewfromcouldclimbingcragbacktowardsgermanyvogesenmountainsfrance_resize.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"View from could climbing crag back towards Germany (Vogesen Mountains, France) resize\" src=\"https:\/\/cris.lovell-smith.com\/trips\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/viewfromcouldclimbingcragbacktowardsgermanyvogesenmountainsfrance_resize-small11.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"168\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Above left: Frauke and I cycling up Col du Firstplan.
