Originally the water came from the Fuhse Canal, but since about 2006 the lake has only been fed by groundwater and, in the event of flooding, from the Oker. It was intended to regulate the flooding of the Oker, and today it is a local recreation area and water sports paradise.

Today, I cleaned up the bottom of the South Lake. What a great way to end the day! A lovely scooter ride through the parks. The mild, sunny temperature, the best techno music, and watching the people go about their business, whether it was resting, picnicking by the lake, running, or cycling—"what a wonderful world!" All peaceful and quiet. The …

We went out to pick elderflowers. We had to take advantage of that and treated ourselves to a delicious currywurst at the sailing club. Then we shot, very sutsche, a little round along the Oker and in the Bürgerpark.

Today we had to pick up a prescription from the eye clinic. Since you almost never get a 🅿️ on Obergstr., a bike ride past the Südsee and through the Bürgerpark was a good idea. On the way back, we had a chancellor's menu at the Südsee and a small beer in the sun 🙂. After we went to the …

The bike was mostly pushed. It was wonderful, the park was hardly visited, the water in the ponds and the Oker glittered in the sky ☀️. …

Today it was even less clear than yesterday where you could drive.
The South Sea was difficult to reach and most of the paths were under water. It looked similar along the Oker south of the South Lake.
