Explore #10 of the Berlin or Bust Tour
Day Four
After three long days of exploring from dawn to dusk it was finally time for James and I to point his trusty Seat Ibiza West and head home. But we weren’t quite finished yet – what better way to break up the massive drive from Berlin to Calais than by adding yet more distance with detours via a couple more sites on our way!
After yet another stupidly early start at around 5am we arrived at our first location a couple of hours away whilst many locals were probably still in bed.
This small former hospital / care home is set in picturesque countryside, ideal for convalescing. We spent a pleasant hour or so in the early morning sunshine before reluctantly moving on to our next location.
It was a lovely sunny morning, so we made our way straight up to the attic and worked our way down through the building from there.
There were still quite a few beds left dotted around, such as this one in a bedroom.
Peeling paint on the first floor landing.
“The ballad of the Old Aged Derpers (OADs)”!
An old press machine in the basement.
Lots of records and various papers were strewn around…
A physio treatment room in the basement.
…and I’ll leave you with a couple more wheelchair shots.
Thanks for rolling past.
Cheers
