3. Training for the lungs and against fear of heights 😉😂
We started again in Wehlen with the ferry. First brought the son to the train station, he wanted to go back to Dresden, then we went to the Rauenstein. On the lower ascent, it cracked just before us and a thick branch fell off the tree 🥺
Lucky again …
