Incredible amounts of snow arrived during the last days. Unfortunately I am facing a lot of work at the moment, which means that I do not have enough time to spent whole days on my touring skis or at carnival. Luckily it snowed also in the lower regions. That looks beautiful, gives me a winter feeling and furthermore provides me the possibility to go Cross-Country skiing without spending much time in my car. Unfortunately I had to find out that there is a trail for cross-country skiing on the mountain “Höchsten”, but this one is just for classical back-country skiing. As I decided to learn skating, I had to move on to a small village named Heiligenberg. Still it is only about 20 km away from Friedrichshafen.

What a great weekend.

On saturday I joined the DAV group for a little skitour at the Ochsenlager near Hittisau. On sunday I got the chance to go ice skating near Reichanau. As the weather forecast ist predicting warm weather for the next days, I had to take this change even though it wasn’t much ice. But it is always worth it.

Reinhold Messner apparently does not get tired of telling the world that the “Dolomiti” (Dolomites) are the most beautiful mountains of whole world. And this guy without a doubt, has seen a lot.

However, it was a beautiful day. Saturday skiing the whole day long. On Sunday I was practicing some backcountry skiing. About 1050m upwards in about three hours was enough for me after some weeks with the focus on relaxing.

Im letzten Jahr hatte mir ein Freund aus seinem Keniaurlaub Chiisamen mitgebracht. Angeblich waren es Samen der Sorte Lake Victorian Habanero. Das Saatgut war offensichtlich schon alt, denn ich hatte aus etwa einem halben Liter Samen gerade einmal 16 Pflanzen ziehen können. Nachdem ich im letzten Jahr jeden einzelnen Samen aus meiner Ernte herausgeholt habe, kann ich in diesem Jahr ein Feld mit gut 700 Pflanzen blicken.
