It was nice again with fantastic sunshine with a fantastic panorama. This morning it was still cold but it was getting warmer

If the tour went the other way around, it felt like the whole day went downhill. Great tour with surprising views.

And I did a good deed by collecting a heart ❤️ for sick children for the PSD Bank. For every kilometer driven, 30 cents go to the children's heart ❤️ clinic.

There's something wrong with the weather😅. Until yesterday evening, only rain was forecast for today. But when I woke up, there was glorious sunshine. So I spontaneously went for a walk during breakfast. Et voila. It was wonderful, wonderful, beautiful. I can only recommend it.🥰
