A Hard Sunday Walk in the Harz Mountains.

 On Sunday we walked in the Harz Mountains, and thank goodness we had good weather, not too hot for climbing and walking.  The plan was to take the cablecar up to the top, walk, have lunch and then walk down.   However, much to my horror (and I was not alone) we walked up and down.  After an intitial feeling of total exhaustion, I settled into a comfortable pace and had a really wonderful day.  The photo below shows the viewing platform where captive lynx, who have a huge protected area in which to roam,  can be seen at certain times of the day, especially when they are fed.   The lower photos shows the "Ravencliff" restraurant where we enjoyed yet more beer and a good lunch. Below is Karin with Donau the dog, who did very well on his four legs, which must be an advantage.   Today I am totally kaputt, my legs have said, "No more."
