What a beautiful afternoon - finally on the road with Ute again and then on the Boßler 😊.
On wide, sunny and also shady narrow paths, past juniper heath, we went to the Boßler house.
Great view from there, but a bit hazy.
Coffee and strawberry cake at Wanderer's Rest - wonderful!
This is how you can enjoy the moment …

A thank you 🤗 to @Stefanie and @TheChain for the inspiration for this round 👍.
It's still a long way until the flower season in spring 😅, so we brought the tour forward 😄, but the round wasn't entirely blossom-free 🌸 today either ... 😃
