Udo Lindenberg at Braunschweig

Udo Lindenberg at Braunschweig

To put it in a nutshell: The Udo Lindenberg exhibition in Braunschweig is fun! Udo’s pictures celebrate life, do not take it too seriously and bolster the spectator up to follow the lead. I can just say thank you to both, Udo Lindenberg for turning 75 recently and the Prüsse-Stiftung for dedicating this exhibition to Braunschweig on the occasion of

Corona diary: On top of the Öselberg

Once again looking for new hiking and bicycle destinations I get aware of the Öselberg. So far I have not heard of that hill before. But this change today. As the weather is supposed to be worse on Easter I use the window of opportunity and start around noon. However I did not expect such a strong contrary wind on

Corona diary: Where the giants live

Corona diary: Where the giants live

The Corona-Pandemie still prevails and it is still lockdown. But I never tire of insisting on finding new hiking or bicycle touring destinations. This time I find my luck east of Königslutter, where the giants live, at Rieseberg (giant’s mountain). And there is not only a hill but also a moor and an adventure trail. The street king of Rieseberg

Corona diary: the Frog King of Lammer Holz

Just the crown was missing otherwise we would have met the incarnation: the Frog King of the Lammer Holz! The stupidest thing: I did not even try to find out whether it is a enchanted prince! What a wasted opportunity! Well, at least I have my Braunschweig horse whisperer with me, who saves us just a couple of minutes later

Corona-diary: Millenium!

Corona-diary: Millenium!

Lo and behold! A local football club sets a good example and simply turnst he gender gab upside down. It utterly states „Ladies first“ in its true sense. Being a woman you are litterally pampered. For a season ticket you pay three times less than men! That’s what I call a nice treat. Well the intention behind is clear though,

Corona-diary: The way of the siskin

I did not expect that a little bird can brighten a whole day. In this case I am talking about an siskin. Again and again it and its companions crossed our way this saturday. That’s more than coincidence I guess. Today, the way of the bird leads us to the Moorhüttenteich at Volkmarode. Formerly there used to be an eminent

Corona-diary: Taking my nordic walking sticks out!

It happens this weekend: My new nordic walking sticks are in attendance on me. They have been kicking their heels for some time now. After the heavy snow fall on friday and saturday the roads are too slippery for jogging to me. That’s why I prefer my sticks today to take them for a walk instead. Even though there is

Corona-diary: The zoo at the Dowesee

These days it take some fantasy to invent a diversified weekend program. What can you do if you are in for some „exotic animals“ but cannot travel? Well, it is as easy as this: just walk to the Dowesee: there is a small open-air zoo. Mallard ducks, Egyptian goose, nutrias and herons are scrimmaging over there in a pleasurable way.
