Season Hunt Challenge Week 7 - The German Corner

in Feel Good3 years ago (edited)

Hello everyone. Welcome to week 7 of this sensational Season Hunt Challenge hosted by @barbara-orenya. Everyone is invited to join and share their hunt trophies. If you still don't know about this challenge, click on the link here and come and hunt with us.

This week we are chasing:

BARE TREES


The photos below were taken in Deutsches Eck, literally meaning German Corner, located in Koblenz, Germany. It is a triangular headland or platform between two rivers, the Mosel and the Rhein (some spell it Rhine), where they meet at the point or tip of the triangle. The trees are part of the walk along the river Rhein. It's basically just a park. Before the pandemic, people could take ferry rides along the river and ride cable cars going to the mountain across the river.

My daughter and a friend visited this lovely place early this year in what was to be her first experience of winter.

In the photo below, one can see the river Rhein at the right hand side. Not much people around as this was taken when Germany and most of Europe were on lockdown and the vaccine was not yet available. It definitely will be a different scene next month when more people and tourists will be out to enjoy this wonderful place.

For those interested I am sharing with you a photo I found in Google which can more or less give an idea of where exactly this German Corner is situated relative to the two rivers.

Thanks to my daughter for allowing me to share her photos. I wouldn't have had any winter bare trees to show in this hunt. Hope you enjoyed this post as much as I have putting it together. Best of luck with the draw to all participants. Stay safe everyone and may you all have a blessed weekend.

Did you daughter like Germany?

Yes, she's getting to like the place now that her homesickness is slowly ebbing. We're encouraging her to see more of the country and other neighboring countries as well.

What is she doing in Germany? Is it a job?

You're welcome and thanks for this fantastic challenge.

Beautiful bare trees my friend you really found the perfect ones well done 👍

Thank you my friend. Thanks for dropping by 😊

Always a pleasure @gems.and.cookies 👍

A lovely tree lined walk along the Rhine. These are beautiful huge bare trees! I bet they are awesome when covered with leaves.

I hope your daughter is enjoying her time in Germany, @gems.and.cookies
