And… continuing…I was so tired from the short night, but this was a really nice place to sleep – guarded by hippos. The next morning I got a delicious breakfast and the inn owner sat with me – we got to talk some bits. She’s a retired teacher and runs the inn nevertheless, keeping her guests company, working hard for…
This March made me so sore…But the next morning things were already better. Cycling utilizes different muscles than walking so I could actually follow my plan to cycle towards Gothenburg I decided that around 40km per day were enough, so I could see the landscape, and enjoy the ride. We started with a really good breakfast at this nearby cafe,…
So, this was my opponent of which I was very very apprehensive. I have been starting a MegaMarsch evnt in Cologne, a few years back, when I just noticed, that my backbone is not happy about the topic of cycling and triathlon. So I thought a 100km walk/hile would be a worthy endeavour, I signed up, got to the start…
There’s this game, Pokemon Go. And that other game. Pikmin bloom. THe latter a glorified step counter, the first – essentially a collector’s challenge. Both are on my phone. Together with ingress which also encourages to walk or move self propelled outdoors. With ingress I started to participate in GORUCK events. Actually putting a load on my back and walk…
In the official paper with information from our village government, they had an advertisement, showing off a trailer for a bicycle, which you can pull along on tours. The big advantage: you can just crash at the roadside when you are tired, grab some sleep and coutinue. Not so easy with a tent – that’s forbidden. So I booked one…
Just a few pics – GORUCK and Anomaly. This entry comes super late, so I just didn’t have writing time.
Finally. Family vacation in Chicago again. I did not expect that I’d feel so much home there, as I then was. We decided to choose a different time in the year, not in Summer. For once we did not want the dirt of election campaigns. And there was an eclipse waiting to happen. This also meant, I put in my…
This was marked in my calendar as an ingress event but – I thought work would not let me… so I really booked late, but I really needed that time-out. No person telling me what to do. Noone needing me „right now“. Sitting at breakfast, coffee cup full as long as I want to…. So I did book late, after…
Oh yeah. Last year. Kind of I feel that I have picked up all the travels which I missed out on the year before. I was in a lot of new places. Saw new places, regions, countries. First time ever in Norway. Learning about this world, cycling over borders. Starting post-pan-Europe bikepath cycling. But I also am observing our world.…
Yet another destination this Summer. Or – Fall, but it sure felt like Summer. Wading in the Mediterranian Adria, barefeet, for long times – even swimming there… Sun. Heat. yeah that’s still Summer. We planned this trip with the whole family – even this time our youngest could take off work and come. And a beautiful trip it was but…
