Today is the first day at home that actually feels like summer. I wore sandals for the first time this year! It'll be even hotter over the long Pentecost weekend, with temperatures over 30°C (86°F). To cool off, here's a wintery #footpath in #SaxonSwitzerland.

Break a leg for #FootpathFriday the 13th 🤞

I met three British tourists at this spot, trying to navigate this part of the #trail in jeans and trainers. They were debating whether to turn around and take the bus instead. I told them it's a beautiful route, but there are plenty of sections just as slippery as this one. The fittest of them took a tumble, and after seeing that, the others decided to slide down the steps on their bums instead. I didn't stick around to see if they turned back, as I was heading toward the #Bastei rock formation in the opposite direction. Either way, climbing back up those steps would have been quite the challenge. 😅

A small #waterfall on hold for #WaterfallWednesday

Can you spot the spooky face in the top-right rock, smirking down at the #icicles? 😳

A hibernating #Amselsee for #ShipSaturday (are #boats allowed?). The climbing rock in the background is called "#Lokomotive".

The footpaths in #SaxonSwitzerland were something else, and they deserve a #FootpathFriday post of their own. 🥾🥾 With the snow and ice, some sections would have been impossible without those handrails.

#Schrammsteine for #MountainMonday, captured yesterday.

#SaxonySwitzland is like the Harz mountains on steroids – absolutely stunning! 🤩 With snow on top of ice, it got really slippery at times, but it was absolutely worth it.
