Made in Germany 18 - Sunflowers and Wine


We lived in a small village about 10 kilometers away from Tübingen. I often biked to Tübingen along back roads, a very enjoyable ride. Sometimes the entire family biked to town just for some delicious Italian gelato and then back home again. A peaceful, low-key outing.

This is one of the views we had during those bike rides, of sunflowers, the church in the neighbor village and the hills covered with vineyards.

It spelled out one word:
Summer

Great shot...do you know I used to live in Balingen....was in Tübingen quite often. Be glad you are not here this summer....not having much of one....just one of those years I guess. I think I need to chow down on that salad below...yummy!

I wish the sun was here, like the yellow in the flowers... too bad, rain is what I get

Beautiful view and it must have been even better from the seat of a bike. There is something peaceful about bike riding in the country.

Wow! That church is distinctive - immediately you can tell that you are not in the states. And the hillside - what an amazing shade of blue!!
