Guided tour through the old town with Oksana from the tourist information office. Plenty of historical information (Why did the castle remain a ruin?) as well as current tips (Is the snow globe cake worth it? Nope, like cotton wool). An entertaining 1.5 hours.

A tour to Schladitzer Lake on a sad occasion. Farewell to graphic artist Gunter Böttger. Very moving at the prayer site of the burial forest at Schladitzer Lake. The fond memories of workshops with him remain.

The SLK (Structural Lightweight Engineering and Polymer Processing/Chemnitz University of Technology) chair had a hiking day today with over 150 people, and almost 120 completed the half-circle of the Kriebstein Dam. From recent graduates to those approaching retirement, everyone persevered. Even though

Today I finally managed to visit the Reiche Zeche silver mine in Freiberg (silberbergwerk-freiberg.de). I've been to the outdoor area several times, with its fantastic view of Freiberg, but in recent years the mine has been closed to visitors. On the one-hour discovery tour, you travel about 150 meters

Although our vacation was over 6 weeks ago, I still want to note a few things.
We booked the transfer with a local provider and deliberately chose the one that would pick us up after 4 hours. Others offer 3-hour hikes, which seemed a bit tight and stressful.
At the beginning of the hiking trail, you pay

Today we're hiking from the cable car above the botanical garden to Palheiro Garden along the Levada dos Tornos. A short descent into the Ribeira de João Gomes valley takes us up to the entrance to Curral dos Romeiros, where we enjoy a wonderful view of Funchal's harbor. Past a bus stop, the entrance

We actually wanted to watch the procession from the Church of Santa Cecilia to Pico da Torre, where the residents of Camara de Lobos reenact the Stations of the Cross. But we didn't know when it started and were too late.
FYI: The mass and procession begin at 9:30 a.m. on Good Friday.
We saw the last participants

Wir hätten in dieser 8.300 Einwohner-Stadt nie so eine riesige Kirche erwartet. Wunderschön, mit ansprechenden Erklärungen. Die Führung durchs Kellerlabyrinth mit einem an der Erschließung Beteiligtem erklärte sowohl Kirche als auch Ausmaße des Labyrinths (Wegkreuzung mit Stapelrecht), sehr empfehlenswert. Derzeit sind gerade mal ca. 2% der Keller erstschlossen.

Geführte Tour (GyG) , erst mit der Bergbahn hoch (ohne Anstellen, dank Stadtführer) dann alle wichtigen Punkte (englischer Garten, Elisabeth-Tor, in den Schlosshof, zm Fass, Balkon) angelaufen und Hinweise auf weiteres. Wir haben dann individuell verlängert und auch ruhige Ecken gefunden. Z.b Erklärungen zu den Amphibien, die in den Wasserbecken leben. Mit der Bergbahn hoch zu Molkekur, leider keine tolle Aussicht zum Schloss gefunden, vllt sind die Bäume zu groß geworden. Schöner Tag

The first 1.5 hours (about 1.5km) were part of a city tour 👍🏻, including a visit to the Jewish Courtyard with its impressive mikveh.

Then, of course, to the cathedral, across the Sonnenbrücke, past the Holz- und Fischmarkt (wooden and fish markets) to the Trinity
