Not much snow in Munich
Not much snow in Munich which is unusual too. Not too cold either. Wonderful weather for mountain hikes in the Alps. My wife and I were out there yesterday, and although the day remainded overcast, we emjoyed it immensely.
I remember a New Year in Holland (Callantsoog). Watching the fireworks from the dunes was a wonderful experience.
good for you, jochen !
Sounds good for you over there, Jochen, enjoy it !
Yes, I know the region of Callantsoog, I have lived there in a place nearby, called Bergen. I loved the sea, beach and dunes !
Used to make bike trips in the dunes and sportstraining ( running), but that was a long time ago.............
Ah, Bergen aan Zee. I have
Ah, Bergen aan Zee. I have beautiful photos, paper ones, unfortunately. Born on the German North Sea coast, I have always loved Nederland where most of Germany went for summer hollidays during the fifties. I also remember incredible masses of snow during some of the winters in my very early years right behind the dunes in Germany, the first winters after The War. Have you ever seen those millions of snow-capped shells on the windswept beach at low tide in Bergen or wherever? Too many motorways nowadays, but yours is still an enchanted country, I hope everybody knows. I have always been impressed with how free everyone seems to be there.

Thanks for all your impressions of winter on your own location, I like that !
Here is the most recent picture I took on a sunny winterday. As you can see, motorcycles were not yet invented and Heaven's Angels were travelling by horses.
Stay warm and enjoy yourselves !
