Königsstuhl

Wir fahren mit dem Bus durch den Buchenwald... durch den Regen

und machen uns auf die Suche nach dem Stuhl des Königs...

We drive by bus through the wood of beeches... through the rain

 and are looking for the chair of the King...

Victoria-Sicht... Victoria's view

Der Königsstuhl... the King's Chair!

Trotz aller Warnung 
schlittern wir die Holztreppe 412 Stufen hinab zum Strand... die Sonne kommt heraus

In spite of warning 
we slithers the 412 steps downstairs to the beach... the sun comes

zum Strand, an dem sich die Kreide noch nass vom Regen über Stock und Stein ergießt

to the beach, where the chalk still wet from rain gushes over stick and stone

 Victoria-Sicht... Victoria's view

und meine Sicht unter die Bäume... die kreidigen Wurzeln
die Querschnitte durch das Gestein... die Farbpalette... einfach eindrucksvoll!

and my view under the trees...  the chalky roots
the cross section through the rock... the palette... simply impressing!

 

Nur noch ein Blick.. dann geht es wieder hinauf (ich japse nach Luft...)

Just a glimpse... then upstairs again (I gasp for breath...)

zurück durch den zauberhaften Wald...

back across the fairy wood...

dc #110: GOSSAMER

Here you see a cliffhanger... 

to the Time Travel

: looks like I moved into the future last week, right?!

*

On our way back home 

I watch out of the window of the moving train... traying to catch the pic of the moment... without something for my lens

but as I see the cable, gossamer comes into my mind

are not that wires like a huge net, a gossamer of cables around the world? A web by carriers of energy to the most houses in the world. Imagine all the streams for your sockets say for your light and household goods and computer... even the wireless ones: really a gossamer.

Today is the No 110 of the dc.  

At this first weekend in July, the 6th and 7th, dear Tammie is our hostess with her theme gossamer

Today I have just photos and thoughts about gossamer. 

Please swing to Tammie's to have a look at wonderful artist with their gossamers... 

She pulls the strings

 

Wish you a refreshing weekend!

 (Please, stay tuned for more photos and stories from the isle of Rügen!)

or do we make a holiday break of the dc? Start again in August? 

what do you suggest?

We have a vacation of the dc til August... 

 Who will be our next host for the 3rd + 4th of August?
