August 27, 2022,Heimatwanderung in Hessen🌳🥾🚶🏡 - Schlosspark Rauischholzhausen und zum Bitteich - Ausblick Amöneburg vom Mühlberg 🌾🙋🏼‍♂️🥾

This weekend we are visiting my parents in Hesse, Stadtallendorf 😉🏡🥾 🏰 🌳

Even if we are actually visiting, having a barbecue, just being together again and having fun, we can't help but hike "at least" once and admire the beauty of my old home 😂
