preps - 25k hiking with 10k backpack

Having found my peace again as of acceptance of that crazy sheet, thus shock and respect in one thing, but good vibs, also by the public in form of story-telling - and things might be true despite of believing or disbelieving in general - I reintroduced myself to the triathlon-community most active in German spoken countries, too. And they welcomed me back. Not all, sure, but most believe in me I have learned my lectures that the hard, the very, very hard way.  Only few. Life is good.

 

Especially to hike around Franconia in autum.

 

So after some kilometers the signs of Nuremberg's the big city vanished and became less and less being on the right way, having found the marks in the landscape, a blue circle on white background. when I found that bush like in flames, firely red, was a side the trail.

 

 Smoothly sloped hills are typical for this area the tourists do not come, but the locals for joy and relaxation.

 

However, after haven twaddled with the local population I asked for a shortage for a way to a famous fountain's that traced its way the river bed in cascades. Its really very famous, only this region the geology does enable those kind of natural pools. However, that sign of the blue circle was not found again but "Way of Franconian" (Frankenweg). Later the trail was closed as of timber hacking in the woods.

 

Which animals do live here?

 

 

 

Can you imagine how our ancestors lived 10000 years B.C.? 

 

 

Finally I lost my destination and target, a town closely to Nuremberg called Gräfenberg. It has a memorial of Rudolf Hess somewhere in, sure, but I was not going there for that, but for beer that is plenty in spices and famous of tradtiton and art. However, I was late, so and finished the hike a town before Gräfenberg called Weissenohe and luckily they have Brewery, too

Literally it signs: "Market of drinks Heaven of Beers"

Having chosen MONKey beer, a green Pilsener and the monestary's dark beer I went to the railway and station the aristocrats build for their employees and themself that time when Faber-Castell came up to be world-leader in producing pencils. Still today they have - pencils, colored pencils, felt-tip pens, fillers, ball-point pens and my favourit I since when I was at University: fine-liners Schwan-Stabilo are best in quality, duration of usage, precision, stability, color and handling movement, speed, weight and pressure.
