Today it was time to go to the vet again for a check-up and vaccination for Baghira.

So it was only natural to make a detour to the Caribbean corner 😊

Always lovely 🥰

Here you can find the best fries for miles around and lots of great drinks 🍹 with and without alcohol 😉

Today only a small round to end the exhausting day.
When the water level is low, you can cross the Main below the weir with dry feet. Beautiful sunbathing areas on the lake, bar area with good cocktails, boat rental.

Just something small and chilled today so that the knee stops bitching 😏
Being reasonable is just not that easy 🤷🏻

Thank God the Caribbean corner is just around the corner 😊, so pausing and healing is a bit easier... 🏝️🌴🍻☀️😎
