Holiday - The last day

Okay, they always say that wonderful things have to end some day. And you know what? They are right. All good things have to come to an end and so my holiday ends today. Tomorrow I'll go home again.

So let's have some last photos under the cut



A move came to say good bye



I managed to take a photo of the bridge's ornaments


The look across the old harbour. These three houses were storage houses for food until 1884.



The flower seller at the Friday market



The brother of the guy from yesterday





And of course the sheep with their lambs



And one I think is very funny



That was it for this year, we'll drive home early in the morning when there isn't so much traffic on the streets. See you all around

I love the houses and the landscape. Great photos!

Thank you very much. The houses are great, aren't they? They are very old (some are from the 18th century) and they are all very well looked after.

Last days are always sad, but it looks as if you had a great time. And took some great photos! I love the sheep, and how they're huddled in the shade.

Have a safe trip home!

Thank you very much for liking the photos. I do love sheep too, they are very cuddly. And I love your icon.


The trip home was good, we had no traffic jams over 300 kilometers. That's good.

I enjoyed your holiday snaps - so interesting and such diverse scenes. I hope you had a great holiday in spite of some of the weather.

Thank you very much and I'm happy you enjoyed the snaps. Yes, the holiday was great and since we had no rain in these two weeks I'm more than confident. :-)

What a nice place! Glad you have had such a lovely holiday!

Oh yes, it really is a nice place. It is very peaceful there and it was wonderful to sit at the old harbor and watch over the water.


Thank you.

I have missed your holiday, but it looks like it was wonderful. The sheep are very calming, somehow, and I adore your pic of the funny bird! I hope it was nice to come home too, after being away. And to look forward to the next holiday! *g*

Nice to see sou around, I was a little worried because of your long absence from LJ.

Yes, it was a wonderful and peaceful holiday, but coming home was nice too. I like my home. :⁠-⁠)

My next holiday is in September with my sister one week in London. Our father gave it tomus as a Christmas present in 2019. And this year we are finally able to go.

These are all so lovely! They made me feel nostalgic all of a sudden — we used to spend each family summer holiday on Eiderstedt on the German North Sea coast, and by the looks of it I'm guessing this is somewhere close by. I'm glad you had a nice holdiay!

[identity profile] macklingirl.livejournal.com 2023-07-03 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)

Thank you for taking a look. It's nice to read you remember a nice time on the German North Sea coast from times past. Hooksiel is 350 kilometers to the west of Eiderstedt.


Yes, the holiday was really nice. We discovered some nice places there.


Are you from Germany?

[identity profile] lomelinde-lj.livejournal.com 2023-07-03 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)

That sounds (and looks) like a lovely place!


I live in Austria and grew up here, though my parents are from the US. When I had asthma as a kid and the doctors recommended ocean air, our friends in Wiesbaden found us a place to stay on Eiderstedt, and we ended up going back every summer for several years. We made friends with a local farmer and stayed in a small caravan — I loved doing all the farm stuff (working with the sheep in particular).


I went back a few years ago and found that I still really love the area. It's so peaceful, and I love the ocean and the wind and the wide open space. (I don't do well in the heat, so summer holidays further south wouldn't work for me.)


I'm really glad you had a nice holiday!
