A Walk in the Forest



Phyteuma nigrum, Black Rampion, Schwarze Teufelskralle or Schwarze Rapunzel

These are tiny chanterelles. We found enough of them to flavor scrambled eggs, although it must have been really, really hard to clean them. (My mom did it, I think we would have eaten a lot more forest if I had cooked them)







Echium vulgare, Viper’s Bugloss Gewöhnlichee Natternkopf or Blauer Natternkopf

Kiron’s Birthday




Klaus’ Bees

Klaus has 10 hives now and it’s hard to imagine a more idilic setting for bees.

Leilani was very interested, and really enjoyed helping with the smoker

Sadly 2 queens were missing, here they are looking for one of them.

Kärnten 2016

Klaus helped Lilith and Leilani to setup the play mobile pyramid

The first evening we had a campfire. It was really nice, even after the great dinner we had had before the girls wanted to cook foil-wrapped potatoes, they tasted really good.

They spent a lot of time playing electronic legos (mind craft like games)


I could not get the whole waterfall into one picture, but it was a beautiful as ever


The weather was weird all vacation long. While it triggered climate-fears in me, it also made for very dramatic skies in my pictures

Inge made great meals for us, every time but the raclette was the only one I photographed.
