Today, climbing the Teide was finally on the agenda. But it's no longer possible to just walk up there. Since the beginning of the year, the ascent to Teide has been strictly regulated. You can get to the upper crater cone expensively by cable car, but places and time are limited and that wasn't an option

Today we set off directly from the base camp. First, downhill from the hotel to the beach, and then through Punta Brava along the coastal path. The sun still had the upper hand over the clouds, and it quickly got warm. The occasional breeze didn't change that.
We were quickly out of the village, and the

Today, we started from the base camp in Puerto de la Cruz and drove by rental car to the planned hike's endpoint in El Palmar. Unfortunately, the bus to Masca, which we wanted to take, left right in front of us, and the next one doesn't arrive for another 1 1/4 hours. We bridged the waiting time in a

After the extended big family weekend in the Nordpfälzer Bergland, we went straight to the airport yesterday and off to the south, to extend the summer in Tenerife a little longer.
I don't have a bike with me and I'm not planning to rent one either. But besides chilling in the pleasant climate, there

After finishing the weekend gardening, it was supposed to be a short round near home, but it turned out to be more difficult than expected. Unfortunately, there was no way through on either side of the construction site of the new Huntebrücke bridge. Otherwise, it was a pleasant tour in beautiful weather. 😊

The 2nd part of our Saale cycle path (Saale-Radweg) was initially planned from Bad Kösen to Halle, but as it turned out the day before that we would have almost only headwinds, I reversed the direction and we started from Halle. (When you have the choice 😉). I found it better anyway...
So, at almost

We were also in Erfurt many years ago, but in an ice-cold winter 🥶 and somehow everything looked completely different😂
Wishing you a great time 🍀🙋🏻♀️

Today I had to curb my urge to move a bit.
Tenerife wanted to be explored further, but since there was no bike at hand and the distances were too far to walk, I had to use the rental car.
I only like to use the car reluctantly, but sometimes there's no other way, and the poor car was chartered after all
