Today I just did a quick, short loop around Ulsnis. Despite the wind and the high probability of rain, it was still an interesting loop, with beautiful old houses, the village church, the giant, and the landscape in general.

Today we split the day into two small activities again. First we went to the Schlei again.☺️

Made a little round to the Schlei, unfortunately no sunshine today, but ☁️. Still nice 😊 and we could see the ⛪ from the outside. It wasn't open and of course there wasn't an information board either 🙄
