It was now 03:30 and a bad time to hitch. We waited for an hour for a ride, as it got darker and darker eventually we were picked up by a Portuguese guy and taken all the way to Baden Baden where the sun was shining. We went to the supermarket and got some heavy sunflower seed bread, yogurt and a tin of sardines each, then we headed for the hills. We had decided to sleep out so we went up a path into a park where there are two chapels and beautiful trees, bright yellow flowered bushes, bluebells, snowdrops and daffodils growing wild.
We had our sardines etc, and sat on a bench overlooking the park, an expensive mansion and a sanatorium then we selected our "spot" on a hillside where the park becomes wild. We chose to be behind a holy bush. We had to be far enough away from the center not to be caught yet close enough to be heard if anyone attacked us. We lay plastic bags on the dry leaves and then our sleeping bags on top, the bags kept slipping, and we slept sliding down the hill all night - down hill into the holy bush. By morning Paz was virtually trapped under the bush talking to my feet. The only scary moment during the night was when a dog came sniffing around.
