Getting around

This is more a travelling and planing blog so if you are looking for my daily life, you’ll have to look somewhere else :)

First a sauna then a cold bath

That is how this day felt. Very hot at the beginning, around 33 degrees. Then a heavy thunderstorm which cooled us down. Luckily we missed the heavy rain but we saw plenty of it’s devastating force. All over the road was lots of broken off branches and the local fire department had to close the road to gt rid of all wood. Right now I’m sitting, or laying in my hotel listening to the rain outside, this is how it lookes like: rainWe have dicided to try to sleep out the rain 🙂 as we did in Pärnu. Late breakfast and perhaps some shopping. Earlier today we saw Wolf’s Lair. A lot of concrete and iron. Only Göring’s bunker is that intact that you can imagine how it would have been. Görings Bunker All the important bunkers were built in two parts. One inner bunker with a 1,5 m roof and outside that an other one with a 5 m roof. You can see the inner roof in the middle of this picture. It has a  slightly lighter gray tone.

It felt very special to see the place where the barrack stood in which Stauffenberg made his attempted to kill Hitler. Both Kim and I wondered what would had happened if he succeeded?

Zur Wolfsschanze: der Jahrestag des Hitlerattentats (20.7.1944) jährt sich morgen ja zum 65. Mal. Hitlers damals etwa 20-jährige Sekretärin Traudl Junge hat kurz vor ihrem Tod 2002 in Buch und Film von Andrè Heller erstmals über die Jahre neben Hitler, u.a. in der Wolfsschanze, berichtet. Erstaunliche Details. Wäre vielleicht was für Dich für lange Winterabende… – Schönen Gruß aus Heidelberg und unterhaltsame Reise weiterhin! Tobias
