Bench with a view of Varel Harbor and the lock

Highlight • Viewpoint

There is now a snack bar at the “Aal & Krabbe” restaurant at the front of the harbor (galley). This now appears to be the "replacement" for the former fish shop across the street.

In any case, there are fresh fish sandwiches there and that's exactly what we want to enjoy at the end of the beautiful days here. No sooner said than done... the delicious matjes roll is eaten while sitting comfortably on a bench!

Although a break was planned for today, we went for a walk around the Varel harbor. It had snowed again, so cycling was not possible.

Gray weather, but at least fresh air. And it's nice by the water anyway. And a fish sandwich - everything's good. 🤓

March 22, 2022,🌀 After Work 🦀Vareler Hafen von Welt #Fidel& Samantha-Tour⛵🚤

Hello,
spring was in the air, and so I thought after work, a small tour at the Varel harbor, would be the real thing and that was the case.
I was amazed by the many beautiful boats, ships and yachts ⛵🚤, and the even more curious names of these. So Fidel was standing next to Samantha and they weren't on …
