But Will You Find Your Way Back?
If you follow this signpost you end up in the Kellerwald of Forchheim. It is where the for hundreds of years the beer brewers of Forchheim in Franken have stored their beer to keep it fresh (and cool): The forest is on a hill and there are 23 cellars dug into the hill, very similar to what I imagine hobbit holes to be like. Together they form what is probably the largest, certainly the most charming beer garden in the world.

A Commanding View
The tower on the Odenwald hill called Tromm jutts out an usual angle. It’s a prominent view from many directions.
And it offers prominent views to all the surrounds, 360° of it.

Touting His Wares
Bargain stalls at local fares were called “Cheap Jacob” in former times. The customers were mostly rural people who seldom if ever got in the bigger towns to do their shopping.

Furry Tricksters
In Africa the hare (not the rabbit! PLEASE!!) is known as the trickster. He plays tricks on everybody, enemies, friends, family – he is an ecumenical abuser.
Seeing these two in the field, I couldn’t help but think they were plotting their next chicanery.
“Let’s pretend we’re drowning! – If somebody comes to rescue us we can jump them!!”

Without Asparagus Everything Is Just Bananas!
Around May there is kind of madness that descends on Germans. They go bananas over white asparagus. They eat it with meat, with ham, with pancakes, on its own, usually with a sauce hollandaise or a bechamel sauce. They even paint their houses with it. Proper fanatics.
BTW: The writing properly translated means: Without asparagus, life is unimportant.
