Standing on the Wing of an Airplane
At the Technikmuseum in Speyer they have a Boing 474 and you can walk out on its wing.
You can see the Speyer Cathedral.
To the west, the mountains of the Palatinate Forest can be seen.
Further to the south is the town of Speyer and the trees lining the banks of the river Rhein.
Zooming out and the tail of the jumbo on which I was standing comes into view.
And that is the view to the front of the airplane.

Warm Days vs. Short Sleeves
When the weather gets warmer and the days get longer – the pants get shorter!
Nature is showing more green and humans are showing more skin.
Even shoulder blades are being aired again.
Although some can’t make up their mind.

We all Need a Smile now and then
I’ve never seen a rainbow like this. It appeared yesterday afternoon while I was out and about with friends.
The smile hung in the air for at least 15 minutes.
Who knew that Mother Nature could paint like that?

The Leverets Won’t Be far Behind
Our corner of Germany is usually a bit earlier with spring, so the very first signs – crocus, wild plums, storks returning – have already come. But on Saturday I went for a bike ride and I saw the first hares of the year.
I left them at this point. Privacy, and all that. Spring is well on its way.

Making History Accessible
The museum of Michelstadt, a medium-sized town in the Odenwald, has a small, newly renovated museum. One section is dedicated to a rabbi, talmudist and kabbalist, known as Sekl Loeb Wormser or Rabbi Jizchok Arje who lived in Michelstadt, Frankfurt and Mannheim from the mid eighteenth century until the early nineteenth.
He took his family name from the fact that his ancestors came from the town of Worms, about 60 km to the west on the Rhine.
The Mannheim Palace from two different directions, and in two different media.
