October 5, 2024,Deutsches Weintor, Südpfalz – Wissembourg Runde von der Hopfestubb aus.

Today we drove from the Hopfestubb to France. Wonderful. We were welcomed as foreigners. The German Wine Gate was built during the National Socialist era. Hopefully that time will never come again.

August 16, 2025,Von Dierbach nach Wissembourg

Today we went from the Geiger Winery via Bad Bergzabern to Wissembourg.
After a beer, we headed back to Germany, to Kakteenland for something to eat 😋.
After the refreshment, we made our way back rather heavily.
