But first things first: Spring arrived! So, you guessed it... instead of running, we went to the city.
This first time, though, it wasn´t just going to the city, oh, no, I had to take the navi.
I´m a woman, the only way to get where I want to?
Ha, no ;-)
But I had to follow the navi to get something back.
On the way we met Pippilotta: Well, ot rather the graffiti, no idea if that shop still exists, or where. And finally, after a stop at Schadt´s, (funny thing, btw, when you just hear that word it sounds like what many (too many) people call each other, Schatz (honey)), well after that.... Yep, that was fun (awww, here you see how much fun I had - anyone an idea how to really find fun in this? I want to, for Ingo!)... I brought it back: What do you think how long it´ll stay there??? Are you into Geo-caching? Teach me how to have fun doing it?
Guess I´ll just have to do it, right?
On another note: I switched from winter- to summer clothes!
And I threw so much away.
Have you read the book The Happiness Project? One of the best books I ever read.
Still working on it, guess it´s a lifetime-project.
And one thing is: Throw out what you don´t wear anymore.
I threw out what became two rather big bags to give away.
Some stuff turned too old (skirts I had for over 10 years! No wonder the color had faded?) And also...
Skirts I thought...
... too short for your age.
Bummer, huh?
It felt good, though. Why keep stuff you don´t wear anymore anyway. Ok, I kept two or three pieces just cause of good memories.
Or (not so) funny ones like when we very spontaneously in Wilhelmshaven went to see a submarine.
Did I mention it was spontaneous?
I was wearing a short, red skirt.
Bad combination.
Ingo literally had to push away that old man who wanted... well steep stairs, right?
I have no idea what he thought what´s there to see anyways, I wore undies. And naively climed up.
Can´t throw away that skirt.
But the rest... out!
Now: Spring, summer: Come over here!

Haha! Really enjoyed this post Iris, short red skirt, climbing stairs..not a good combination :) Aimee an I regularly pack away clothes we haven't worn for a while to put into TheGood Samaritans..there's always someone who can use them oui! Very happy to hear that the warmer weather has reached you at last, enjoy frolicking in the sun..
Oh, Grace, the Sun is gone again, 13 C, cloudy..., but, oui, will sort out clothes more often now, too. After over 10 years they may not be up to date, non? ;-)
I don't understand the attraction for geocaching ... maybe you just have to be born to love it!! I laughed so hard about your RED skirt story - there's NO WAY you could throw that away!!! What a shame you had no photo of that for our interview, haha!! Enjoy the warm weather - we are in the Flinders Ranges for a couple of weeks. Did you visit there??
Oh Red!!! Ingo said, "do you see the giant salt-lake?".
No, I thought it´s the horizon!
Later I wanted to die... or a helicopter.
Uhhh, the Flinders Ranges! Took us 8 hours and afterwards I was too tired to even eat!
Bad memories (I lost all my power by climbing down there, I´m not a good climber).
You have fun, though, take heaps of pics and adventures and maybe have Stagg´s with Noodles on my behalf once? (Guess Ingo made something with pepper that night, though.) - Stagg´s is not available here (as Jerky, Pies and all the yummy stuff).
Have a great holiday!
