Some pictures from today...

Oct 31, 2011 16:08

Having seen all those snow pictures in some journals I promised to show how the weather is in Germany at the moment. Actually I am on holidays in a small town in the Eifel, that is near Cologne/Aachen/the border to Belgium. If you want to google it: Schmidt or Nideggen would be the town you have to look for....
Today the weather is absolutely fine, ( Read more... )

pictures, holidays

Beautiful shots of autumn in Germany. We lost all our leaves in the last snow storm... and another is coming tonight. :0

Sounds just gorgeous there. Have a wonderful time with the family, Astrid.

Wow, hon'! I love these! :D So pretty! And I didn't know that you got Fall foliage!! Dumb, I know..I just never thought about it!..lol. Very lovely! Hubby and Lucy..I like that pic of the trees and the fence on the side, especially..and the shots of the landscape are just beautiful! That last of the skulls..Ooo..ugh...awww.. :( Looks like something pre-historic, actually..but was probably a horse or cow or something?

Lovely, luv! Thank you! :)

And I didn't know that you got Fall foliage
We have mixed deciduous and coniferous forest a lot, so no wonder we have Fall foliage. Especially the low mountain range area of the Eifel (the place we visited) and Sauerland/Siegerland and Schwarzwald have this mixed woodland....In the higher Bavarian Forest and of course the Alps you find more coniferous forest only, which means no Fall Foliage.

Peter (my husband) never wanted to be in a picture, but he just stood there and so I took that pic...Lucy couldn't hold still for a moment, she was sniffing through the leaves sounding like a Truffle-swine!

That last of the skulls..Ooo..ugh...awww.. :( Looks like something pre-historic, actually..but was probably a horse or cow or something?
It is actually to small for a cow or a horse....Might be the skull of a wild animal...a deer or a fox maybe. Or of a dog that escaped from home and did not find the way back. It was in the brushwood near an open field, half covered with leaves. The lower jaw was missing, I just found this. Last winter was ( ... )

Aww.. Sad at the thought of animals losing their lives due to not finding their way back home in bad weather. Ah..who knows? :(
