Even after a year in the Southwestern part of Germany we are still amazed about the fantastic weather in this region. Being used to rainy and humid summers in the area around Cologne (the so-called 'Rhineland') we enjoy the warm and relatively dry climate down here a lot. So - between two World Cup quarter finale matches - we strolled around with our bicycles again, mesmerized by the beauty of our surroundings.
At the Kinzig river
Like holidays!
We love the noise the water makes at these small rapids
The branches of the apple trees need support already, because the apples are too heavy for quite young trees already.
A few more weeks, and these beauties are going to be ripe and juicy!!
Less juicy, but at a ripe old age...
Another fun evening out. Such pretty colors out there in the wild. I love it.
ReplyDeleteIn the wild... We might be making a wrong impression here. There hardly is something like wilderness in Germany, the next village is usually not more than a few kilometers away. But still it sometimes looks beautiful!
DeleteYou had great light for this riding.....
ReplyDeleteI agree about the light, maybe they take it along?? :)
DeleteIndeed beautiful light here down south! People living here sometimes don't know how lucky they are!
DeleteIt doesn't sound like you are pining for Vancouver rain or traffic. Lucky you.
ReplyDelete...but the ocean! We do miss the ocean!
DeleteMore beautiful photos. The one with the wildflowers and bicycles in the background I'm sure you could sell. It would be nice as wallpaper on a wall facing an entrance.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the euphoria of the well-deserved World Cup win. That winning goal was a stunning demonstration of skill.
