After we weren't that lucky with the weather 🌧️ we did a lap around the lake from the 🚐⛺ parking space ⛵
In Schwarzenbach an der Saale there is the 1st comic museum 🇩🇪. The translator Dr. Erika Fuchs (1906 - 2005) lived in Schwarzenbach an der Saale for almost 50 years.

It was too cold for us to cycle 🚴🏻‍♂️ today 🥶 so a short Sunday hiking walk 😉 around the Förmitzspeicher. A very quiet 😴 area for the time of year.

Today we walked around the Förmitz Dam at ☀️. There was a lot going on here in the beautiful weather. Most of the dam is still covered in ice, but part of it in the middle has already melted. This made it look particularly mystical and romantic. Highly recommended for relaxation.
