I took Aino by her word when she said “tartan” as the theme for today’s colour collage. Well, it’s colourful and it’s a collage. These are sports’ kilts worn by runners. They are lighter and use less fabrics than traditional kilts. The tartans are all … Continue reading Sports Kilts

But I did find the smile here when on a bicycle tour with my sister yesterday. It was, I must admit, before we found out that there would be another 10km to get home after having already ridden for 30km. For those who don’t know: the Odenwald is not flat, even on an e-bike you have to pedal hard occasionall). (last on the card on my camera).
