Edersee and all the rest

And finally I made it to my parents who are still living in my home town of Nieder-Werbe, located in the principality of Waldeck (around 200 km nothern of Frankfurt). Its funny that in 25 years I never really noticed in which beautiful place I grew up. But that explains now why we have so many tourists staying in this area in the summer time while in the winter time you are under the impression of live at the end of the world.

Being a tourist myself this time, Torsten and I did the tourist thing over here too. Nieder-Werbe is located on the shores of the second biggest man-made lake in Germany, the Edersee. What better to do for us to take a bike tour around the lake which is around 60 km (37 miles). After that I noticed that its quite a while ago that I was riding the bike ;-)


On the other hand we got rewarded by different views of the lake I know like the back of my hand... like seeing the Edersee dam from the sea side, discovering some remote camp sides or getting lost on forgotten trails in the woods. A great place to go and I am looking forward to do the bike tour with Torsten again... next year... and with a bit more preparations from my side :-)
