Die Teufelsmauer

Ha! We found it. Or at least part of it. The Devil's Wall, Saxony-Anhalt. We were so close on our not so great transition day. If we had just continued up the sketchy road out of the back of that farm store we turned into, we'd have found the trail head. Oh well, it was really much too hot that day to be tramping along the the fields in the sun.

Have to say, the rock formations were very engaging. A lot more exciting than the Devil's other wall down in the Schwarzwassertal in Saxony, though that area was stunning, especially in the snow. This Devil's wall reminded me of rocks formations we've seen in the American west, but their isolation in otherwise tranquil looking fields make them seem sinister.

So now, I've seen two of the Devil's walls, and eaten his sandwich (was meh, you'd think the Devil would have a better taste). What Devil-related thing will be next for us? God only knows.

And I'm really taking advantage of my 25 free photos here...Weiterlesen
