Impressions from the wifey’s August 2022 short trip to Denmark (specifically: Langeland municipality), visiting dear friends and enjoying the gorgeous nature and sights.
Steak Haché
I was about 17 years old when I was part of a school student exchange with france. With our hardly manageable and ill-fitted school-french me and my fellow classmates found ourselves being caught in a school (un “collège”) downtown in the city of Marseille (de – en – fr) – and confronted with a very special local dialect 🙂
Sunbathing

Morning Cuddles

New Fishing Spot
I finally found a ravishingly beautiful and also promising fishing spot in close vicinity from where I live here in northern germany. It provides absolute remoteness, quietude and an overwhelming feeling of pure nature. So what else do I want?
Hilde’s Visit to the Vet
Lovely Hilde had to visit the vet a couple of days ago – she seemed a little lethargic and passive in the last few days and we wanted to avoid a catastrophe as with Schakkeline at all cost. I assume she wasn’t exactly happy about having to sit in her travel box and being transported in the car, but eventually – after a profound examination and survey – it turns out she might well have been just a little bit lazy… 🙂
Wifey’s Tour to the Baltic Sea
My sister in law’s birthday was a few days ago, so my wife invited her to a campervan tour to the baltic sea. Amazingly, they even had some decent weather and enjoyed some quiet days in the wild coastal nature.
Among else, they stayed at a lovely coastal campsite, located in a small village named “Brazil“, right next to the village of “California” – no joke!
Wind Egg or “Cock’s Egg”
Priscilla laid a so-called wind egg the last days, the first one I ever even saw in real life. It’s a complete egg, but with only a membrane, thus just missing a calcium shell. They were called cock’s eggs traditionally since it was believed they were laid by cocks in former times.
Here’s wikipedia’s information on this (german language, since unfortunately the english version isn’t worth a dime).
Stirling Engine
How cool! I found my old model stirling engine (similar to this one) while rummaging through the basement. It even works with a cup of tea! Read more about this cool gadget and the underlying interesting principle here on wikipedia.
