2 hours :: "barfussweg"


walking the "barfussweg" around the nollen was our saturday afternoon doing.
we walked away from the house in a thick fogs with the hope that the sun will come out and burn away all of the mist in the air. it did as you might be able to tell from the photos taken. lots of fun was the word on the "weg". starting out with the glockenhaus was wonderful, where else do you get to ring so many bells and i love that ringing the sound as it travels all across the fields and through the apple orchards. hearing it and not seeing it, as the fog was still thick.

of course some of us could not withstand warming up their feet in fresh cow paties... it really didn't need a strong teas for naomi to step right into it and of course the teaser had to follow! ha!

walking through the wet grass, and some especially constructed paths with all kinds of materials, like cork, glass, small and large pebbles, wooden planks and much more. wrestling on a soft wood chips pit was fun too and then the high light, walking through a mud pit.... lots of fun and no one slipped. yea!

the foot washing station was fun too, cleaning once own feet and helping the others in one way or the other...
such little adventures are wonderful, this one will carry me through this week, as fall vacation approaches quickly. the kids too are so ready again to have two weeks off. there are plans in the making for a bit of traveling. i'm looking forward to it and the fact that we hope to go south for a week is particularly promising.
