On Friday, the day before our journey home, we took Ludovica for a bus trip to Greetsiel. In fact, it was my first trip to that place, too. And it turned out arguably the best day of our holiday. Greetsiel is famous for their twin mills and a scenic harbour area and might be the … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 7: With Ludovika in Greetsiel →

Ludovica is a photographer from Italy who contacted us earlier this year. She told us she had been “creating a photographic reportage project with the intention of demonstrating how technology, and specifically love dolls, are helping others not only with their state of mind, but also to find a sincere form of companionship.” The intention … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 5 & 6: Welcome to Dornumersiel, Ludovica! →

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 … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 4: Sunset →

The name of Dornumersiel’s harbour is Accumersiel, hence the title of this post. The reasons for this name go back in history, I believe. 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 … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 2: Accumersiel →

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 … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 1: Back to Paradise →

Time to travel home… We surely enjoyed our third trip to East Frisia and are looking forward to coming back in September. I hope it will be warm enough for some bikini shots then because I’d really love to do some fashion shots in a maritime environment. Except for some weird glances from passers-by, which … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 8 – Journey Home →

Harry had been pretty exhausted from the previous days – it is quite something to push your doll around in her wheelchair all day, mind you. So, on our sixth day, I decided to give my lovely husband a well deserved rest. I insisted he’d go out but leave me at the apartment for this … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 6 – Father-Daughter Day →

Dear travel diary, Today, we went back to Schloßpark Lütetsburg, undoubtedly the most beautiful castle garden park throughout all of East Frisia. We had been here last year and even celebrated a renewal wedding ceremony in the little chapel on the estate. The weather was not as great as last year but still good enough … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 5: Schlosspark Lütetsburg →

Dear travel diary, Harry was pretty tired after two days of rolling me around in my wheelie. Also, the weather wasn’t really nice. So we decided to stay home, take naps and maybe play a nice game of “Mensch ärgere dich nicht”. But the weather cleared up near the end of the day, so we … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 3: Coastline Sunset →

Dear travel diary, We had a terrific day with terrific weather at Dornumersiel today. Still, two questions linger in my mind:a) How come the water is always gone when I get there?b) Do I look like I’ve gained weight on the photos? Well, anyway… We took a stroll around the Mahlbusen which is an artifical … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 2: Dornumersiel →

Dear travel diary, This vacation trip promises to turn out way, way, way much better than the mishap trip to the Baltic Sea about a fortnight ago. The train attendants were all very kind and helpful, as they had been the previous times when we traveled to East Frisia, and my husband had a very … Continue reading East Frisia, Day 1: Arrival →

Goodness me…!I had been so looking forward to our vacation trip to the Baltic Sea but it turned out an utter disappointment. 🙁 I love traveling by train and our froggy daughter, Nici, was so excited about joining us on that trip. But the first downer already happened on our final train when some small-minded … Continue reading Baltic Disappointment →
