\"Middagpauze\u00a0Lunch break in a cabin at the Ochsenweg. Tosca has a warm nest<\/p>\n

\"Wow,\u00a0A milan , bird of prey. He\/she is hoping I will starve, the dummy<\/p>\n

\"Fixatiesysteem\u00a0Fixation of the straw (hatched?)\u00a0roof with sticks. Never seen before<\/p>\n

Now it is 6:46\u00a0pm. <\/span>I arrived at my backpackers hostal. <\/span>Tosca is\u00a0at the leash\u00a0in my room, otherwise she makes a nest on a bed, with\u00a0digging included. <\/span>I’m tired, hungry,\u00a0and doubting\u00a0whether I should take a day off here and, though I’m in a good mood, I’m not in the Laune\u00a0( mood) to write very much. <\/span>I must still go shopping for Tosca and for myself, find a cheap immigrant to eat, write my blog. <\/span>The film camera,\u00a0that I was given by filmmaker Rudi, I accidentally disturbed. <\/span>That’s a little shit. <\/span>Rudi has emailed me the instructions, but I believe that\u00a0covers dozens of pages. <\/span>And if I will continue to walk tomorrow, I’ll go to the Danish border and Rudi wants me to film\u00a0that memorable moment. <\/span>Of course I can still shoot with my own camera, or with my handy. <\/span>I\u00a0also\u00a0need one day off, to specify my route\u00a0through Denmark\u00a0and what\u00a0my possible\u00a0shelters\u00a0will be\u00a0in Denmark. <\/span>The hostel is saying that\u00a0the current dog room isn’t free any more tomorrow.\u00a0<\/span>I\u00a0can\u00a0get another dog room, but that one\u00a0will be a lot more expensive.\u00a0I<\/span>f I\u00a0succeed in resetting Rudi’s\u00a0camera tonight<\/span> it will get late and I won’t get anough sleep, and\u00a0I can not afford that\u00a0with my slight head cold\/rhinitis in the cold wind, with every day my geriatric resistance being attacked.
\n<\/span>Anyway, today\u00a0I\u00a0 felt good again. <\/span>No problems with muscles, blisters or shoulders. <\/span>It was a peaceful route, with Tosca\u00a0enjoying her day. <\/span>A lot of deer, a kite, a\u00a0bird op prey,\u00a0recognizable by its forked tail. <\/span>Photo. <\/span>Again\u00a0I had one of those many short chats with a passer-by, a 65-year-old man on a road bike. <\/span>Photo. Here i<\/span>t is an\u00a0undulating, hilly and certainly quieter rural area than usually in the\u00a0NL. Again I\u00a0was lucky anough to find\u00a0a cafetaria. <\/span>I usually walk the first 3-4 hours non stop. <\/span>Take an apple or orange during a short break. <\/span>A few hours later, just\u00a0around two, I take a\u00a020-30 min. lunch break\u00a0and I eat the breakfast\u00a0containing 4 slices of bread with toppings. <\/span>During the afternoon some fruit and c’est ca. Is there still an Imbiss, then of course coffee, always two at a time, and some sweets. <\/span>Tosca also gets some kibble noon. <\/span>Usually\u00a0Tosca’s energy is mostly gone upon arriving in the afternoon\u00a0and she is quiet until the next day, apart from a\u00a0brief washing her hands (paws) before the night. <\/span>So, now I must stop. <\/span>It is 7.19 pm.<\/span><\/p>\n

The shopping: buying my\u00a0dinner and dog food. <\/span>Instead of an Italian, Turkish, Vietnamese, bratwurst or McDonalds, I saw in the supermarket a buffet\u00a0with salads and vegetables for sale. <\/span>And as an old goat still loves a green leaf,\u00a0 I\u00a0took a lot of the salads, thought\u00a0of the few\u00a0slices of bread I still had left in my backpack, took a big pudding for dessert, Frolic for Tosca and I was\u00a0fix und fertig. <\/span>After\u00a0shopping I\u00a0strawled another hour\u00a0through the center of Flensburg. <\/span>Actually, it is one long street with a lot of historic buildings and a small number of short side streets and a beautiful church, and a port and that’s pretty much it. <\/span>Furthermore, the whole evening on the one hand\u00a0talking on the phone\u00a0with Rudi\u00a0about the camera and on the other hand the so-called infrastructuring, organizing my trip through Denmark. <\/span>Let’s hope I can stay here an extra day\u00a0to rest a little. <\/span>It is fascinating, exciting but time-consuming and tiring.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
