Komoot not cooperating
I just saw that the Komoot embeds are not working, so here’s another try. Paparoa NO Croesus Track (partly): Paparoa NP/Punakaiki Loop: Nelson Lakes hikes:
Greymouth, Pt Elizabeth
St. Arnaud was really good to us, I must say. Wonderful region, and the town itself is undeveloped in a nice way. Just one word of warning: Stay away, stay the fuck away, from „Dine Hard“. The worst food I’ve ever seen. Disgusting. The Alpine Lodge, on the other hand, much better food.Or take the…
Nelson Lakes National Park
After a nice lunch in Nelson a short drive up into the mountains to St. Arnaud. Finally. We’d had this on our list for years now and something always came up. Well, not something, but the weather, to be precise. There was always weeks of rain and storms up in Nelson Lakes NP when we…
NZ, again
Boring. Went to New Zealand again. Had fun. Nuff said.You’ve read it all before, haven’t you?BUT, and yes, it’s a capital letter but, some things are slightly different this time. First, we booked the same international flight, SIA C from ARN via DME/SIN to AKL, but we did not fly SAS from TXL to ARN.…
Slovenia!
What a wonderful place! đWe will definitely have to come back for a longer vacation, so consider this a fist first scouting mission. A very successful one. My friend Claus and me went for 5 days, from Thursday to Tuesday the first week of September. Apologies for posting this late, but Frankfurt Book Fair and…
Keep on fighting, Wooster
I was in such great spirits just 16 days ago. That was before my little furry friend tore his crucial ligaments and meniscus in both hindlegs at the same time. Argh. Nobody knows how he managed to do that, it is certainly another unique achievement by his lordship. But here we are now. First surgery…
Winter is coming
This is why we need Ginger juice! Ginger juice for the win! Ginger juice ‚til I die! Ginger, ginger, ginger! Makes me happy and hyperactive, my hair slick and shiny, my skin soft and beautiful! Add some lemon to make me even more happy and hyperactive! Hyper hyper! Add some chili to achieve true bliss…
Last time to see me before I die
Well. Went to see John Cleese at the Admiralspalast the other day. Well. Not really the other day, more like four weeks ago. But with Frankfurt bookfair looming, may I be excused for not posting in a timely manner? Please. I’ll be a good boy. So, John Cleese. Well. Hmmm. I thought the performance lacked…
Hunt and Kill in Berlin
The weekend before last, we discovered another hidden treasure in Berlin: Das Tegeler FlieĂ. Very beautiful. It would have been even more beatiful without the cyclists, but hey, can’t have it all. There’s a bunch of water buffalos grazing there as well, so I shot a few for dinner of course. Did you know that…
Korruptions Ursel zerstört die EU
Interessanter Tag. Vielleicht geht der 16.07.2019 spĂ€ter mal in die GeschichtsbĂŒcher ein als „der Tag, an dem die EU zu Grunde ging, ohne dass die Verantwortlichen es gemerkt haben“. Heute Abend wird Korruptions-Ursula (von der Leyen) zur EU PrĂ€sidentin, Ă€hh, Komissionschefin, Ă€hh, FĂŒhrerin, Ă€hhh Gottkaiserin, ÀÀÀh sie weiĂ es selbst nicht so genau, aber Hauptsache…
