    Not connected to canalisation and lot of rain - we were cleaning our wastewater ponds. Some 'dusky large blue' butterflies around who like muddy surroundings. But did you know they have very interesting caterpillars? They feed on ant larvae in the ant nest.

    1st of May is workfree in Germany, Bicycle trip with almost WHOLE family, mainly tandems with kid trailers. 80 kilometres to visit a bicycle race. We visited at the climb to the highest mountain. Before we visited a falconry which trains falcons to keep birds away from the runway at Frankfurt airport. Return by railway which had waggons for bicycles.

    29C and sun

    From the hill top near our house we can see the hilttop of the Grosser Feldberg. But seeing and reaching it per bike are two totally opposite thihgs

    myrtle beach -> Wadden Sea

    Germany's Atlantic coast. At low tide the water reveals a large muddy beach and you can walk from mainland to the islands. Before I went firefighter at naval air wing I was weapon officer on subhunter helicopters and planes. We did some SAR flights for tourists who were surprised by high tide while not yet back to main land.

    There are some places which allow swimming, but I always liked to walk on the wadden sea at low tide. See the houses atthe horizon? You can reach them walking at low tide.

    At lowest tide and the reason I like the place:

    But so it looks at high tide. And there are dangerous and strong currents.

    Beach walking at low tide is one of my familys favorite summer activiaties... theres no show on netflix that equals walking along a moist grainy shore and looking at al the animals and plants the environment brings literally to our feet.

    Wadden Sea -> Panama

    friday the 13th -> quatorzieme

    My neighbour asked me if my daughter could be the quatorzieme for his (playboy) son. Quite dangerous question since we met in forest and I carried a gun. Then he said that a quatorzieme is a 14th guest in case there 13 at table.

    So wasn't the question to be the 14th girlfriend.

    quatorzieme -> lucky

    yeeks... :oooo: neighbor didn't realize how lucky he was 
    :eek:
