remembering warmer days

in the middle of winter. As I like skiing very much I still support the snow quite well (but warmer days seem so far away...) The picture shows a breakfast we took in Strasbourg last year in october.

Hinterzarten-Schluchsee

Last Saturday me and a friend went on a skiing tour from Hinterzarten to Schluchsee. It's a classic tour of about 32 km. The conditions were wonderful - we had 1,50 metres of new snow and lots of sunshine. The first picture shows the Raimartihof which is close to the Feldberg (you reach it after 10 km). The second picture shows the valley of Menzenschwand. The third picture was taken close to Farnwitte (km 14). The last pictures waren taken at the Roßhütte after 20 km.

Happy New Year

We visited the wind-beaten "Wetterbuchen" close to the summit of the Schauinsland summit once more (this time it was sunny and the visibility was better than last time - see http://friederikebauer.blogspot.de/2012/02/wetterbuchen.html for a comparison)

Guten Rutsch!!

A german expression to wish you all: get to the New Year well!! The first picture was taken on the Christmas market in Karlsruhe, the second one in Tromso (the green light in the background is the aurora borealis).

Frohe Weihnachten!!

Merry Christmas! Sarbatori fericite!

skiing

Today I took my skiing equipment and went to the mountains for the first skiing tour of the winter. It was a great pleasure to be back there even though the weather got cloudy and cold in the end :)

a flag...

... because today is Romania's national holiday. I took this picture in central Bucharest last month.

market day

Münsterplatz, Freiburg - I like markets like this with all the fruits and vegetables.
