April 30, 2023,230430 Der Kirschwanderweg 1 in Wendershausen

A trip on April 30th, 2023

It was a very beautiful, pleasant path, along the way we saw countless cherry trees in bloom, a dream in white. Several times we had the two-castle view of the castles Ludwigstein in Hesse and Hanstein in Thuringia. …

Last Saturday, Yvi and I went to see the 🌸 cherry blossoms 🌸 in Witzenhausen and hiked the 🍒 Cherry Hiking Trail 1 🍒. The start and finish was the Ritzmühle bus stop in Witzenhausen. The trail was well attended, as expected. It was still worth it and it was a wonderful day.

Today we drove quickly to Wendershausen to enjoy the cherry blossoms. 🤗 It was beautiful as always. We enjoyed the birdsong 🐦. The cherry trees are in full bloom. When we got back to our car, it started to rain lightly. 💦 Lucky. When angels go hiking 😉
