Alanya - Stuttgart - the unexpectedly different journey
We have collected countless photos from our travels since 2004, which help to convey a broad picture of all the impressions and feelings that we experienced during our travels. Now they can be seen by everyone in the blog and photo gallery Alaturka.Info ™ portal. Impressions and discoveries of all cultures from the most diverse regions, which reflect the daily life of our time.
Again and again there are encounters that illustrate how much the travel tourism has established in recent years and how "exotic" the holiday destinations have become.
It was actually just a visit to a local pharmacy, which had led us to a concrete paved with concrete walls enclosed parking lot in Velbert in North Rhine-Westphalia.
"Path Chapels" are often very small chapels that stand at junctions or historically determined locations. Some chapels go back to roofed and converted way crosses and stones. What the background of this chapel on the way exactly is, we could not clarify unfortunately so far.
Last year, we visited St. Paul's Spring on Sithonia, which for many Greeks serve as actual source of water for their home table water too and next to see the spring, we also followed the marked trail up to the top of the mountain.
When human beings intervenes in nature, the result does not necessarily have to be disappointing. Kerkini Lake in Northern Greece is a wonderful example for this.
Further purchases in Thessalonica had taken us from the Agora to Aristotle's Square, where we met this French couple who encouraged the children to loud dances of enthusiasm in their bladders with their soap bubbles.
A squat is the possession (temporary or complete) of a foreign, empty, but mostly disintegrated abandoned building or plant and its use as a living space or as a functional room.
Those who have made it in Ohrid to the St. Sophia church in the city center should, after their visit, which is really worth due to the ancient Christian murals, go down to the lakeshore, where you meet with an unexpected special of Ohrid.
Another wonderful day promises a pleasant bike ride to Ohrid, where it first goes on the gravel road, then later on concrete slabs directly along the lake shore to Struga.
After the many pictures of the violent storm with the unexpectedly high mammoth waves, which we received from Pimi about 14 days ago, we were very interested in exploring whether the hidden bike path directly on the shores of Lake Ohrid had been affected.
Actually, we are not very attracted to densely populated areas, but sometimes secret dreams and longing come true in such places, which were not to be expected.
After initially unspectacular handover due to the time constraints with regard to important dates at Lake Ohrid, the handover of the fully assembled and tested mountain bike by the market leader Würzburg took place on Saturday evening.
Although the nights are still pretty cold, the already warming daytime sun lures the first campers back to the Main, here at a small but nice camper stop in Albertshofen.
Heavy and prolonged rain showers, combined with heavy snowmelt on the surrounding mountains of the Galicica National Park, have increased the water level at Lake Ohrid almost overnight. So strong that the exit of the Black Drin river at Struga could barely handle the masses of water.
After a first short contact with the employees in the Würzburger Hofbräu, it was still time until the stage preparation for the evening concert of Backdoor Connection, so we had arranged to meet Georg for a coffee in the city center.
Although there are still low minus temperatures, which are sometimes accompanied by heavy gusts of wind, but the clear blue sky and the sunshine lure into the open. We are guests at Lennart, a student at the University of Oldenburg, which can also forego a long history of development in education, especially of teachers. Our walk leads us to the city center, which also has middle age crafted, half-timbered houses. Our walk leads us to the approximately 3.7 kilometers away city center to Pferdemarkt, most well-known of the central places.
Although it was a few degrees below zero with sometimes icy gusts of wind, but the sun tempted and movement never hurts - this mentioned above, we wanted to take a short walk through the Western Woods between Diedorf and Rommelsried with George.
After the CMT Stuttgart our way to the north of Germany should lead to Hannover, where we wanted to pursue the development of the bicycle and mountain bike industry at the leisure fair abf with particular interest.
