Carnival time

Christmases, New Year's Eves and New Year's Days are over. We are enjoying a long weekend: The captions say: "Why marjoram? It was supposed to be myrrh!""I wanted it to be more European".  It's carnival time !! I wish you all great fun on every occasion. Let us be glad that we still have some...

On bicycles - sightseeing

Yesterday, with temeperure slighltly below zero, we decided to do a sightseeing ride in the Arkoński Forest. Our challenge was to ride up the Arkona hill on which there are ruins of the Quistorp’s tower* (German: Quistorpturm).   It is a remnant of an observation tower built in 1900–1904. *more h...

For a good start of the year

What is the best (healthiest) way to start 2020? On bikes near Lake Głębokie lake! 20 km to warm up after a break of several months. With friends, we remembered the funny events of the past year and jokes about our beloved party at power and its leader. There was a lot of laughter, and some jokes w...

Don't be fooled by the winter arrangement of the photo taken by my cousin Grzegorz with the comment: "a camel sat on a snow glade in a Christmas setting." This ...

Already after ... But this is not the end of the celebration

At Iwo0ka's a summary of holiday events and memories of staying in Tunisia. Suddenly, downstairs (three floors below) a fire brigade with three trucks. We seemed to be in no danger because it looked like a false alarm. The fireplace and two cats of Russian breed created an atmosphere. Something w...

Christmas, Christmas...

Santa has a lot work and he desrves some rest: He came to us a little late and tipsy. He said the chimney was too narrow and a bird blocked his way. We forgave the olld man because he didn't lose his presents. He was just a little whining about politics, because he had to go further, somewhere ...
