May 2, 2015 In the morning I bought my train ticket to Pforzheim with cash. Couldn't use my credit card. There were two train changes and I missed the second. It was easy to catch the next train 30 minutes later.
In Pforzheim I called Helmut and met him at his house. He showed me around the city and took me to the hostel where I stayed the night. His wife, Ursula was recovering from surgery.

May 3, 2015 At the hostel breakfast I met a German from the Munster area who was walking from Munster to Rome. He had done the Camino de Santiago and other long walks.
Helmut offered to show me around again. We went to Bretten in the morning. Very nice old village and interesting buildings. Later we went and watched a tennis tournament.
