A wild goose chase

· Leave a comment ·

What started out as an argument (or possibly a bullying incident)

amongst domestic geese

turned into a wild fracas

before settling down again when everyone left.

Lindenfels is a small town in the Odenwald where the German Dragon Museum is housed hence dragons abound in the streets and the shop windows, often crossing the line between art and kitsch. This one struck me as particularly stange: A baby-faced dragon with droopy eyelids doing yoga? No comment.

The life ahead

For many children the first day of school is a day of joy and great expectations.

Some are more nervous than others, picking at their “Schultüte” (large cornet of cardboard filled with sweets and little presents given to children in Germany on their first day of school).

While others are simply overwhelmed with impending doom when they realise what the next 13 years of their lives will look like.

Have a bembel or two

Äppler

Traditionally, the local cider is served from these jugs. They are called “Bembel” and are typical for the area around Frankfurt in Germany. They are grey with a blue glaze but more importantly if you drink a lot of the Äppler, as the cider is called, you end up “glazed” or in the local vernacular: “blue”.
