January 14, 2024,Eisige 🥶 Gassi-Runde 🐕‍🦺🐾 am Simssee 🥾

That was a pretty fun 🥶 walk on the south bank of Simssee today. In addition, the paths were all completely icy. It is definitely beautiful here in spring or autumn. In the end the sun 🌞 came through. Unfortunately the Gockel Wirt is on company vacation 🤷‍♂️. This is a pretty quaint inn with an outdoor museum.

In 1955, Anton and Betty Rietz fulfilled their dream of expanding their poultry farm to include a small restaurant. And they kept everything, absolutely everything. That's why there's so much to see here: seemingly every square centimeter is decorated with antiques, …
