No lake pics, though. I went with the current three men in my life, three generations on foot. We were a few days late for the full glory of the daffodils but they still looked splendid. The predominant floral colour was yellow whether daffodils or … Continue reading A Walk Around the Lake
Wordless Wednesday
Straight out the door and towards the sea.
Turn to the north and the choice is yours: walk next to the water line or on top of the beach or take the proper path next to sunbeds.
After not meeting anybody for at least one kilometre we tried a bit more inland and ended up on a small country road with no shadow anywhere.
Found some relief on a path flanked by olive trees.
which led us back towards the hotel following the tire tracks between the bales of hay and the beach.

Because it’s not quite over yet, no photo editing just a few photos I took during the last couple of days to show what we did.
Of course, there is a tree with all the ornaments, some of them edible.
We had a Christmas food, all of it edible, and some decorations.
We had our presents on the night of Christmas Eve, as is traditional in Germany, and we played with our new toys.
On Christmas Day, we went for a walk in near spring conditions. We were greeted most graciously.
We even made new friends while we were out.
The rest we’ll keep under wraps.

We spent the weekend with lots of friends doing little else but walk in the sunshine (at least, as long as the sun was up). I am left with lots of impressions.

No winter wonderland.
Yet undeniably winter in the woods.
And then – another walker spotted.

We can’t go far because of the rules for social distancing (which is a misnomer, really, physical distancing would be a better name for it) but we are allowed out of the house to go for a walk or to go shopping. We can go for a walk in the company of persons from the same household. So we combined grocery shopping and driving a small distance to go for a walk in the local woods. The trees are still bare and the ground is covered with brown leaves from last autumn but looking a bit closer one can find the first fresh green leaves and also flowers, in this case heath violets, pilewort, and wood anemone. I’m not quite sure how the grape hyacinth got into that part of the woods but there it was.
