I left Bremen towards Delmenhorst, where I stopped for some breakfast, then continued eastward along minor roads to Dingstede (where I had a look at a reconstructed <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Thingstead\" class=\"external external_icon\" rel=\"nofollow\">thingstead<\/a>; the name Dingstede is derived from Thing\/Ding) and Munderloh.<\/p>\n<p>In Munderloh I noticed that my phone\/GPS&#8217;s battery was almost drained. Without it I would be lost! So I decided to turn around early and cycle back on a more southernly route, via Ganderkesee and Varrel.<\/p>\n<p>All in all a nice ride of roughly 85km, even if I missed the original goal.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rl-gallery-container \" id=\"rl-gallery-container-1\" data-gallery_id=\"0\"> <div class=\"rl-gallery rl-basicmasonry-gallery \" id=\"rl-gallery-1\" data-gallery_no=\"1\"> <div class=\"rl-gutter-sizer\"><\/div><div class=\"rl-grid-sizer\"><\/div> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item rl-gallery-item-width-4\" > <div class=\"rl-gallery-item-content\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2011\/10\/Screenshot-20111023-032008.png\" title=\"Not Visiting degree confluence 53\u00b0N, 8\u00b0E\" data-rl_title=\"Not Visiting degree confluence 53\u00b0N, 8\u00b0E\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2011\/10\/Screenshot-20111023-032008-300x180.png\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" alt=\"Not Visiting degree confluence 53\u00b0N, 8\u00b0E\"\/><span class=\"rl-gallery-caption\"><span class=\"rl-gallery-item-title\">&lt;em&gt;Not&lt;\/em&gt; Visiting degree confluence 53\u00b0N, 8\u00b0E<\/span><\/span><\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item\" > <div class=\"rl-gallery-item-content\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_7311.jpg\" title=\"&#039;Alter Postweg&#039; near Steinkimmen\" data-rl_title=\"&#039;Alter Postweg&#039; near Steinkimmen\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_7311-225x300.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" alt=\"&#039;Alter Postweg&#039; near Steinkimmen\"\/><span class=\"rl-gallery-caption\"><span class=\"rl-gallery-item-title\">&#039;Alter Postweg&#039; near Steinkimmen<\/span><\/span><\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item\" > <div class=\"rl-gallery-item-content\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_7313.jpg\" title=\"The Dingstede Thingstead\" data-rl_title=\"The Dingstede Thingstead\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_7313-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" alt=\"The Dingstede Thingstead\"\/><span class=\"rl-gallery-caption\"><span class=\"rl-gallery-item-title\">The Dingstede Thingstead<\/span><\/span><\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item\" > <div class=\"rl-gallery-item-content\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_7317.jpg\" title=\"Near Kirchhatten\" data-rl_title=\"Near Kirchhatten\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_7317-225x300.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Near Kirchhatten\"\/><span class=\"rl-gallery-caption\"><span class=\"rl-gallery-item-title\">Near Kirchhatten<\/span><\/span><\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item\" > <div class=\"rl-gallery-item-content\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_7320.jpg\" title=\"Near Bergedorf, &#039;An der Friedenseiche&#039;.
