Start of last vacation - Quilt - October bliss 

Who doesn't dream of flying! 

Well, we were traveling by car on our vacation, but we were very enthusiastic about visiting the Wasserkuppe, which is considered "the cradle of gliding".

We were already looking forward to the German Gliding Museum with model flights.  

It's also exciting to watch the planes take off on the 670 m long asphalt runway...

Just like the hang gliders and paragliders.

And last but not least, there is fantastic nature all around for hiking and relaxing.

 

Just beautiful.

Our next destination was the Eifel in Germany - Monreal and Monschau - the two ancient cities of cloth makers and wool crafts, which were based on the large herds of sheep. The half-timbered and quarry stone houses bear witness to the prosperity between the Thirty Years' War and the 19th century.

We had a meal in this small inn in Monschau 

and I ordered a real Belgian beer in anticipation of our next destination... before we hiked back to our accommodation.

Later BELGIUM - and now Quilt.

The binding is prepared and since there are so many corners, I sewed small coasters.

Aren't they funny :-)) 

I have more in the works :-)) and since the weather was so good there were some great hikes.

 

All the best until next time. 

Hug from me.
