good morning dear people
what a great evening yesterday with you!


Thanks for that, especially the others who don't appear here 🙏

I wanted to see the new show at Phoenix des Lumières, I really enjoyed it again, and since the rain was supposed to let up, I headed towards Rombergpark anyway and lo and behold: it even cleared up later. I always find something beautiful in Rombergpark and it's such a lovely walk through the greenery.

December 13, 2025,Der kleine Prinz im Advent
When you only have half a day and want to combine a lot of things, this is what I end up doing 🙆‍♀️.

My itinerary included: Phoenix des Lumières with "The Little Prince," some exercise, and the Christmas market at the zoo and in Rombergpark.

At Phoenix des Lumières, the story of the Little Prince is told with beautiful pictures.

This evening, I'm doing "grandchild sitting". So, due to time constraints, I didn't want to go sooooo far away. 🤗 I had saved the tour around Rombergpark from suggestions here on komoot. I had moved the actual starting point a bit because I was travelling with 🚙 and not with 🚈. We started from the Buschmühle car park at Westfalenpark. …

It should only be a small house round. I consciously got along without muddy paths. Once in a swing I covered almost 12km and the announced rain spared me. Wonderful! 😀👍🏻 This round is an alternative for muddy forest paths, although I generally prefer the forest.

This was a real plan B tour. I originally wanted to go to the open-air museum in Hagen and do my rounds there. But the constant rain in the morning stopped me from doing so and I headed towards Phönix Hochofen. This is the starting point of the Dortmund Mammutmarsch and also the current new exhibition by Phönix des Lumieres …

Today I hiked with @Sasa 🥾🌳🌻🐝 and @Cornelia 🐈 from our WanderbarHelfen team to hike kilometers together for a good cause.

We decided on the Pott (Dortmund).

We took the train to Dortmund Hörde station and set off from there.

After a very leisurely morning, I decided today to do this interesting and varied tour in the heart of Dortmund. As expected, it was relatively full in Rombergpark, but countless snowdrops made up for it. How nice that spring is approaching...😊☀️🌱🌿🌼🌸🌷
