Hello, everyone! Today we were in Bremen. We parked near the train station. Due to Reformation Day the parking lot was free. I started the tour at Nelson Mandela Park. This was followed by the Bürgerpark and Stadtwald. We were surprised how green it is in Bremen. There was also a lot to discover such as different vegetation, culture, a …

Was that a nice day for hiking. Lots going on in the Bürgerpark. Are still holidays. The hike was very worthwhile, unfortunately too little time for a mulled wine or coffee, we plan better next time.

Start and end point: Bremen Central Station

Finally summer temperatures again.
A lovely walk, relaxing on the beach, and swimming. Wonderful!

The Stadtwaldsee lake has several bathing jetties and two beautiful beaches. One of them is a nudist beach.
It's a groundwater-fed, slightly salty lake with good water quality.

... today it worked out and we were able to do our joint 🔄 with @MON🚴‍♂️ and @Fritz 😎 (it was a lot of fun again 😊).

It was still warm 😅... but our paths were 99% shaded.... so the name "Bürgerpark im Stadtwald" is also meant that way. WONDERFUL!
Narrow forest paths alternate with wider avenues... always with a …
