Holiday in the sun...

After last October and our rain-drenched two weeks, we were determined to get some sun on our holiday this time - and we did! It has been such a comedown, though, being back in the rain-drenched shires that I haven't felt like posting anything. Even now I am struggling to think of how to report the whole two weeks in one post.

The easiest way is through photos, and these are the highlights:

Berlin: The Fernsehturm and World Clock, Alexanderplatz

Sleepy East Germany: Angermünde

Cooling off in Szczecin

Storks in various places, mostly on the top of precarious-looking nests

Breakfast in Osuch by the mill pond

Wheat and barley fields with no sign of pesticides, just a rainbow of wild flowers

A pedalo on the lake; silence except for the creaking of my knees

A barbecue on the beach, in 35 degree heat
