    11Ullswater

    Aira Force

    13 июня 2024 г., Англия ⋅ ☁️ 50 °F

    Our first stop this morning was a scenic hike to see Aira Force, a beautiful waterfall that feeds into the Ullswater. Aira Force derives its name from Old Norse. The original name "eyrr-á-fors" means "gravel bank - river - waterfall." So this is the waterfall on the river that leads to the gravel shores of the Ullswater.Читать далее

    Kirkstone Pass

    13 июня 2024 г., Англия ⋅ ☁️ 50 °F

    We left the Ullswater region and continued south over the Kirkstone Path towards Windermere. Along the way, we saw several sheep and even a few Highland Cows (or as our Scottish Guide would say, "coos"). The steep winding road over the pass is nicknamed "The Struggle" by local cyclists.Читать далее

    Windermere

    13 июня 2024 г., Англия ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F

    We stopped at the town of Bowness-on-Windermere for lunch and to take a cruise on the lake. The World of Beatrix Potter museum is in the town, but her home and farm were on the opposite side of Windermere in the village of Near Sawrey. Beatrix was the J.K. Rowling of her day and used her vast wealth to purchase numerous large farms in the lake district. She had no children, so she left all of the land to the National Trust and remains to this day the single largest donor to what had become Lake District National Park.Читать далее

    Vindolanda was a Roman fort in Northern England, just south of Hadrian's Wall. It is noteworthy for the wooden tablets found here, which are the oldest handwritten documents discovered in England.

    16 июня 2024 г., Англия ⋅ ☀️ 61 °F

    We left London this morning on another Rabbie's tour to visit Windsor, Stonehenge, Bath, the Cotswolds, and Oxford. Our first stop was at Windsor Castle. Several sections of the castle were closed to visitors because King Charles was in residence. He had returned here from London after the Trooping the Colour parade. We had just entered the exhibit of Queen Mary's dollhouse when the king walked past outside. Another member of our tour party took a picture that she shared with me.Читать далее

    16 июня 2024 г., Англия ⋅ ☁️ 64 °F

    Stonehenge is the largest and most famous of the numerous prehistoric stone circles found in England. There are many theories as to how and why it was built, but they remain just theories to this day. What is known with certainty is that the stones are aligned perfectly to mark the summer and winter solstices.Читать далее

We stopped by Monika's shop in Wyk to say "Hi," then Dorit invited us all for coffee. In addition to coffee and tea, there were delicious plumb bars, cookies, and lemon cake. Frank joined us after work, and coffee transitioned to beer and Manhattans. After several hours of visiting, we said our goodbyes and checked into our hotel back in Wyk. Then we walked along the promenade and found a spot for dinner. Tomorrow, we plan to meet Theo at the Friesian Museum in Wyk.Читать далее

    Föhr: day 2

    20 июня 2024 г., Германия ⋅ ⛅ 57 °F

    This morning, we visited the Dr. Carl Häberlin Friesen Museum in Wyk. There was a small reception and one woman was wearing a Friesen tracht. She posed with Stacy and MaryAnn for a picture. The museum was very interesting, and the English audio guide was particularly helpful. After the museum, we walked into Wyk and did some shopping while the kids played on the beach. In the afternoon, we visited the Föhr golf course. Frank and Natalie met us along with Theo and Dorit, and we all enjoyed drinks and visiting on the patio. For dinner we all met at J&MA's for pizza dinner and more lively conversation.Читать далее

    Walking on the Wattenmeer near Goting

    22 июня 2024 г., Германия ⋅ 🌬 59 °F

    We met everyone in Goting this morning and set off for a walk on the Watt (mud flats). The weather was beautiful - bright sunshine and very little wind. We walked away from the shoreline until the tide began to come in, and then we returned. You could see the tide steadily advancing toward the shore the entire way back. After the walk, we all went to lunch at a café on the Nieblum strand called Watts Up Föhr! There was fish and chips, pulled beef sandwiches, beer, and even apfelkuchen. Delicious! After lunch, we all had a bit of time to ourselves. Stacy and I went to Wyk to visit Monika's shop and to look for a Christmas ornament to remember our time on Föhr.Читать далее

    We met the family mid-afternoon at Namine's Deli in Süderende for coffee. Frank works for the owner of the Deli, helping to manage other restaurants and hotels that he owns around the island. There was a wonderful selection of delicious pastries, coffee and tea, and wonderful conversation!

    Exploring the ancient history of Föhr

    22 июня 2024 г., Германия ⋅ ☀️ 61 °F

    Both early in the morning and after coffee, Frank took us to see a few interesting sites that tell us some of the ancient history of the island. In the morning, we visited the site of a Viking harbor near Goting. Today, the area is a marshland, but hundreds of years ago, the area was used as a natural harbor. The marsh would flood during storms, so an area of higher ground above a natural dyke was used as the location for merchant shops. Nearby, we visited burial mounds that date back to the Stone Age. Various people have inhabited Föhr for a very long time.

    After coffee, we visited Lembeksburg, a Viking ring fortress. This is one of several forts positioned in a line from here extending north east toward Denmark. The line appears to have a stronger than normal magnetic field, but it's unclear how the vikings sensed it or why they chose to build their forts along this line.
