September 7, 2026,🚶 Bamberg - Stadtrundgang mit Dom und Blick auf Klein-Venedig

I wondered what lasts longer. Love locks or love. But that is probably a very personal question.

Bamberg is worth it.
1. Time with the MGV and the women's choir there
2. Time by bike on the way to Lake Garda
3. Time now and probably the last time.

At the moment, mild spring breezes are still a long time coming and today's bike tour remained pictureless.
But fortunately I still have two 'cans' from Franconia.
Today comes the penultimate. Once again Bamberg from the beginning of October - because it was so beautiful.
I apologize in advance - there were quite a few photos.
I'll save on comments …
