East Frisia, Day 4: Sunset

Day 4 already…
Harry didn’t feel well yesterday – maybe because of the heat wave that we had had for about two weeks. So, we chose to stay at the apartment.

We had planned to go out again and visit some of the neighbouring “Siel” villages but Harry didn’t sleep well last night, so we postponed this.

We slept quite long and there are no buses from Dornumersiel on Sundays, anyway, so we stayed here to take a little stroll to the harbour and back.

I just love the maritime atmosphere of this region. I would so love to take a boat trip. Just imagine the photos we could take…

East Frisia, Day 1: Back to Paradise

Finally…!
I had been looking forward to coming back to this place since we had to leave and head back home last May.

Even more so as my lovely husband spent a few days on the island of Spiekeroog on his own. I don’t know how I would have made it through those days, had my sweet froggy daughter Nici not been with me.

It must have been quite stressful for Harry coming all the way back to Hannover only to grab his wife and daughter and head back up North the very next morning.

The journey was not nearly as nice as the last time when me met some nice people very interested in what I am all about.
