groede (north sea), holland

a nice sunny day? let's go to the sea :-). well, our belgian friend told us she goes most often to groede, holland because there are much less people than at the belgian beaches and she has warned us there is nothing but the beach + sea ... what? just beach + the sea? well, after 2 days of walking in cities of heidelberg + dierdorf + antwerpen was an empty beach the best what we could imagine😄

few pictures made on the way from antwerp (belgium) to the beach in groede (netherlands):

heidelberg, DE

next stop on our see the world journey is the city of heidelberg in the baden-württemberg region of germany and world cultural heritage by unesco. heidelberg has the nicest castle ruin i have ever seen and the oldest university in today's germany. btw, the oldest german university is the charles' university in prague, followed by the university of vienna. anyway, what surprised me most was how green the whole heidelberg area was. small hills + forest all over the horizon in the so called odenwald massive. just see the last picture made from 'our' hotel elsenztal in bammental.
