Ulm: Attack Swan On The Danube

We drove next to nearby Ulm and stopped at a free municipal stellplatz in a huge public park right on the Danube. Before venturing into the old city, scarcely a mile away, we spent a few pleasant afternoon hours wandering in the park and along the river.
At the stellplatz; minimal, but legal and free, and with a nice
supermarket a block away















Vicki in the park


















Outdoor sculpture all around, like most of the German cities
we have visited















Now again on the Danube, not far from its source in the
Black Forest















Already a sizable river, however














And a play place for Ulm's residents














But danger lurks...or stands in the middle of the path...in
the form of Papa Swan















Joggers could see what was coming and veered well off the
path; but few cyclists saw him in time to take evasive action















Thus














And especially thus; "It's a dangerous business, Frodo,
going out your door..."
