Bisenthaler Becken Hike Jan 2024

By

For my birthday this year I didn't really feel like planning anything so we went back up to Bisenthaler Becken to hike around a different area than we have in the past. We love this area and this was a perfect day for hiking! We parked in Lobetal and first wandered around Mechensee

Which is hard to tell as there is water on top, but the lake was frozen! Raymond commented that he thought it was and I was like I don't know is it? Then we saw some people walking on so yes, yes it was! We had had a lot of cold and snow the week prior, but that was all gone in Berlin, but it was so nice it was still frozen fun here!

And there was still snow on the ground!







We got to this part and I was like okay, that is a big puddle how to get across without getting my shoes soaking wet and again Raymond was like it is ice!

It looked like water though! So this was pretty fun



The ice in the tire tracks was also super cool - the darker spots are where the ice is and the lighter spots were frozen over where the air was. 


Like just bands of ice which was cool

A small outdoor church, but not in use in winter


We love this area already, but this was so much fun! All the snow, all the cool ice, all the things!

Fall is here!

So not a whole lot has happened since I last posted. On our anniversary we were going to go on the boat tour of Berlin, but it was rainy and overcast so we decided to wait for a nice sunny day to do that. We had a few errands to run in the morning and then Raymond said about going to a museum. I saw the natural history museum and since I loved the one in Denver we decided to go there. You walk into this big room with lots of fossils and Dinosaurs! They didn't have a lot of things - this was the main room and is maim attraction of the museum. It was a tiny place, and they were doing renovations on a lot of the other exhibits. Apparently it is famous for having the largest dinosaur skeleton in the world! They also had these fun viewfinder things you could look through and if you point it at a dinosaur it would show this animation that filled them in and then showed them running around or eating or whatever. I thought it was fun. There was also a large room of rocks and m...

Den Haag, Netherlands Part 3

By
Our last day in Den Haag we wandered around just a bit more First stop - the Antique and Book market The ground was all seashells Mondrian on the water by the government buildings We decided to get lunch at Cafe Zeta which was in Grote Markt where they were having a free music festival, Sinester. Though we were there on the last day which was the kids day. It was fun as we were sitting outside and at the stage people were teaching kids how to play things and DJ and stuff.  I got the Hippie Buddah Bowl (Bulgur, sweet potato, bald, roasted chickpeas, tahini dressing, avocado, black sesame seeds) with the Fennel mint pear juice And Raymond had the Apple Pear Ginger juice and the Veggie Roast Bowl (mushrooms, red onion rings, rocket, Parmesan cheese, olive oil).

The final days in Paris

By
Our second day of our museum pass we used to go to the Louvre. It so huge - we spent from open to close there and just managed to see everything. It is also very confusing how to get from point a to point b - so many stairs and up and down floors just to see the one floor....good thing I had Raymond or I would have wondered aimlessly forever (but by the end I had the hang of it). We started with the medieval Louvre, Greek, Etruscan, Roman and Egyptian Antiquities. When we first walked in we were right behind a few tour groups, but somehow we lost them pretty quick and we able to walk around and brows without tons of people. I cannot imagine going during the summer when it is super crowded. I liked the different colors of stone on some of them After that we got some lunch nearby then headed back to look at the paintings Then my favorite part - decorative arts. So much fun pretty things. Replica of Napoleons apartment. Then ...
