Hello,

Today it was my turn to get my submarine, boating license/diving license.
I had been registered for a long time.
The tip came from @Petra.
Thank you for the tour tip from my hometown of Suhl.

The destination was the mountain lodge. Of course, the route there was the bonus. Even though the trees had fallen and been cut …

At the moment, chanterelles are popping up like mushrooms. We were out and about around Suhl between Lange Bahn and Dreisbachtal. I swear, we only took photos of the chanterelles... so they're all still there. Maybe 😉

Today a nice hike on the recommendation of my work colleague. The building is awesome. Very good prices, nice people - volunteer at weekends. The highlight was the drink. Cyclists with sunken liquor. 😋Then we continued to the Dreisbachteich and back through the Dreisbachtal. The first thunder just before the car, then it soon started. 🙈

Well, slightly modified, but there are also many long benches on the mountain hut. We didn't let ourselves be pushed, but pulled with the view of bratwurst, Brätel & U-Boot 🍻, of course a must on the long railway at extremely hiker-friendly prices. The thick wallet can stay at home.
If you go in, a lot of murmuring and a …

Hello,

After a long time, my occasional hiking buddy and former colleague R. contacted me and really wanted to get some exercise in the heat.

Ooh. No. Yes.

Well, okay.
Then yes.
I enthusiastically suggested the Suhl hospitality to him back in March, which was recommended to me thanks to @Petra and @Dirk🌲🌳.
That's when I came to the Schiefe …
