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.
