Stork flies but fly doesn’t
After last week’s One Word Sunday I thought I had to share a stork taking flight; i.e. a stork which flies. Possibly, storks which fly.
Which fly? This fly:
But it wouldn’t fly for me.

The same procedure as every year

Playing can be hard work
Here we go.
The direction is up.
Hold on tight.
Small hands and thick poles.
A breather before the summit.
Heave ho!
Made it!

The sign of the times
I don’t know what was better – the individual attention to each garment (for those that could afford it) or our mass produced wares (but available for the masses). In any case, a lot of our fashion of yesterday ends up here:
It is probably the better option compared to simply throwing used clothes and shoes in the garbage although there are issues with this kind of recycling, too. If I can I rather pass on my no longer used fashion items to an organisation where I know they will be worn in Germany and don’t end up destroying indigenous industries in third world countries. Or I wear them until they fall apart and end up as cleaning rags.

Up / Down
Who had the better perspective? Me looking down? Him looking up? Did we meet?

No plants – no food. Simples.

One German corner
I was in Koblenz yesterday and in the cable car up to the Ehrenbreitstein Fortress. In the cabin one has a commanding view of the Deutsches Eck, the German corner, where the river Moselle joins the Rhine. The corner tip was called Deutsches Eck for a long time but was enlarged and a monumental statue of Emperor Wilhelm I on horseback was erected. The statue was destroyed during World War II and until German reunification only the plinth remained – meant to be a reminder of the German separation. A replica of the monument was erected amidst much public discussion in the 1990s.
Public discussion was again fierce when the cable car from the banks of the Rhine up to the fortress was built in 2011. The area where the Moselle flows into the Rhine is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and people were worried that the view was going to be spoilt but personally I think it does not distract from the beauty of the area.
