Unfortunately, the animals of the forest at the O-See didn't accept our gift table... what a pity.

So today it was "decorate".
Apples and carrots were even good. The daughter can still take them for the horses.


One of our spheres was missing, the wind blew away, but someone hung another...
...next Christmas then to a new one!

We couldn't tear ourselves away from Zittau just yet.
With temperatures down to -2 degrees Celsius and glorious sunshine, we set off for a walk around Lake Olbersdorf.
A completely new landscape has been created here from the former open-cast lignite mine. After the 1999 State Garden Show, a beach with an adjacent campsite was built on the lake.
Numerous …

... People people people 🤓 today 🙃 in the afternoon the weather improved and so there was still time for a short hike near the hotel, practically on the "doorstep". The Olbersdorfer See was to be it. We started at the "Hotel am See" anti-clockwise. You can choose between 2 routes. For us only the short one was an option …

Easy circuit around the Olbersdorfer Lake. Hardly any ascent and easy to walk paths. Suitable as a short warm-up exercise.

5:30 a.m. the eyes opened and the brain box started to work... Before we torment ourselves for a long time and still don't fall asleep again, we decided to do a lap around the O-See.
Was still a bit fresh, but wonderfully quiet. Apart from the chirping of birds, there was little to be heard, apart from the noise of …

December 4, 2022,O-See-Runde am 2. Advent
Before my wife is allowed to take over the pharmacy night emergency service today, she had to be a little more active.
The short house tour around the O-See is ideal for this.
There were surprisingly few people out and we only found one decorated Christmas tree...but we also have baubles...LET'S SEE.

My wife is on duty 24 hours a day and won't be home until tomorrow morning. That's why I went to the office - holidays are good, quiet working days.
When the sun came around midday, I did an autumn lap around Lake O-See.
It was quite damp in places, but all paths were passable with sturdy shoes.

November 18, 2023,Morgenrunde um den O-See
The alarm went off at 6:30 a.m., but we were already awake and since my wife wasn't allowed to work today, we drove to the bakery.
After we picked up our standing order, we parked the car at the Westpark Stadium (memories of school sports and Spartakiads) and from there took a nice lap around Lake O-See.
Despite the cloudy …
