Late summer 2023 I took #LilliAdventure out for her first hike in unknown territory.

We started at a parking lot 4 miles away from the northsea. We had to cross an area of coastal heath called #Küstenheide, walked through forest ‘Wernerwald’ and smelled sea air in #seasidetown ’Sahlenburg'

Late summer 2023 it was scorching. Only bearable in the #forest and at the coast. I was concerned about dehydration. Lilli refused water during a hike. This time I mixed food with water. Since that day she takes water at the car before we go back home.

😺 Our first long hike. Challenging! New smells and sounds.

After 3 hours #hiking I was sooo tiered - I took a 2 hour catnap. When I woke up I saw ducks 😻

Then we entered a town. The smell and konstant rolling sound increased. There was a big emptiness on one side - but on the other houses, humans and cars 😻 I started looking for one to take us home!

😃 I learned a lot at this first hike!
—> Take more food and water than you expect to need
—> allow a lot more time than you need hiking alone

Timetable Küstenheide trail:
9 am Lilli gets into the car
11 am I start walking (5km)
2 pm Lilli takes an unplanned 2 hour (!) catnap
4 pm we spend time in town (buying fish for the cat)
5 pm we walk back (5km)
8 pm catwash, drinking (!), eating again (at the car)
10 pm Lilli is home sitting happily at her window lookout
