Day Eight - Carefree

We´ve been on the bikes all day, welcome to The Lion-City:



Certainly we went outta town, oh, yips, it´s SUMMER, OH YAY:



The harvest is in, so to say:



And black ravens everywhere! What do they seek for?
Was like being on scene in The Birds!!! Certainly they flew away everytime, so no proper pic.

Thanks to Ingo´s new Hobby, Geocaching, we saw another interesting spot in town, belonging to our neighbour, the Brunsviga (German), the Schlaraffia Brunsviga (Germany), which comes from old-German "Slur-Affe" and means nothing but Carefree Epicure or Bon Vivant (Wallower). Ah, qui, les Francais, they know the right words, no?
Here is a pic I just took and Ingo put it into HDR:



Here´s the Clue:



Schlaraffia is for Schlaraffenland, which you know as cockaigne, oh, yes... being a student! :-)

I actually wanted some new flowers for the last month of real summer and we went to the nursery nearby. Didn´t find the right ones, but, ohhhh...



Who doesn´t love Shaun the Sheep!

And the lille one!



Just not for 155 bucks! (€).

Saturday is my friend´s wedding and Ingo found a real good online-step-by-step-lesson-series (for free!!!) for dances. So, instead of the 15 minutes I planned (we both have no feeling for rhythm, sadly), we were in for way over an hour! And: It was fun!!!

Guess in October we´ll be quite good on my Bro´s Wedding!
Yips, they´re in a hurry now (no, I don´t think I´ll be an auntie soon).

I. Love. Holidaying. Was soooo good!
And I guess the neighbours from above (the company they hired - how rich are those guys, huh?!) have finished, too.
