Today, a hiking guide on four paws! 🐾

So, everyone, imagine: Mommy, Kathi, and I in adventure mode 🚗🐕. Off to Seßlach! This old city wall greeted me at the parking lot – it smells of history… and maybe also of bratwurst from the charming inns behind it 😋.

Finally out ☺️, and it was nice: the first 🫐, the 🌬 in the back .. nice round, it's just a shame that I only discovered the card at the court square 😏!. There could be more.. but at the end of the day it was enough.. to get the circulation going 🥳... 🤫🙋‍♀️
