Schluchsee & Sunshine Once Again

Well Anna requested that we get out and see some sunshine! The thick foggy soup is still hanging around in the low-lands... So off we went direction Schluchsee.



Just a few hundred meters up and the fog was left behind us - sunshine all the way.



We parked at Schluchsee and then walked along the lake a little while after first crossing the train station.



The fishers were out... Too blummin cold for me to be sat in a boat all afternoon!



The view over to Schluchsee






After the walk it was time for a warm drink and some hot Apfelstrüdel...

Greece 2011 - Day 5

An easy, relaxed day at Elafonisi. Getting sun burnt and suffering from dehydration!
Well that's what it's all about - isn't it?!
:-)



We were woken at 4:30 once again by fishers getting their boat ready.
But we could fall back to sleep again and slept through till 8:45.

After I showered myself at the public beach showers we walked up to the kiosk to buy Sarah some sandals.

Guess what was there....?
Two Austin minis!
A 1970 850, and a 1974 Cooper 1300.



I got talking with the shop owner and owner of the Cooper. He was very proud to display his car and a very nice guy all together. Spoke good English and was explaining that there was another Mini he had his eyes on - he'll be going to look at it in the winter season. He offered me a free coffee frido and we talked a while.
Did you know that a fully restored mini can bring you 20'000 €..



Well, we all caught too much sun today! But it was lovely to just relax.
Tomorrow we'll have to find a cash machine ('cause it'll be my Birthday and I would like a big chocolate cake for my evening meals pudding!!!). Oh and I'll possibly need some diesel.

The weather is changing - high clouds coming in from the South.

We walked up to a Fresh Fish restaurant - and ordered Lamb!??!

It was lovely. Very soft and juicy.



Anna by sun down!



Don't mess with her when she has that look!
