This summer was completely different from the previous ones. With our Interrail passes in hand, we set off on a month-long train-and-bike journey across Europe. Our first stop was the remarkable city of Dresden and the Dresden Elbland in Saxony, Germany, which also includes the famous Meissen, the stately Moritzburg, wine-loving Radebeul, beer-famous Radeberg, and the picturesque Pirna.
