onion spire, reloaded

this is an emblematic picture for the governing period of the still-in-charge bavarian premier e. stoiber. he was harvesting the fruits of an ongoing change since the end of ww2 in bavaria from a rural and somewhat backward country to a modern habitat for hi-tec companies.

the onion spire on the clocktower was almost a badge for bavarian villages, and now the antennas for mobile services are the new hallmarks.

brave new world…

waiting for the thunderstorm

last day of holidays was the 2nd day with fairly good weather. in the late afternoon clouds gathered and formed a thunderstorm front over the valley of river Drau. when the first flashes appeared far away, the kids stopped playing on the beach and started watching out for the thunderstorm.

and the light was just great.

evening quiescence

vacancies in rainy weather do not include too many activities.

even though the evening quiescence on the campground, when all kids were in their respective sleeping bags and only very little people walked along the tiny stretch of beach was really recreative – only some minutes for myself made up for the whole day of bad weather.

reflection in rain

that rain lasted for a whole week. getting accustomed to the noise of raindrops on the trailer roof, I slowly adjusted myself to it. And sometimes, the rain made up for a really pretty scenery.

more rain

so I had rain before my holidays and in my holidays. my nephew didn’t mind and kept standing in the water in search for a fish. after three unsuccessful days he started using a canoe and voila, out on the lake he was lucky.
