Travelog for: Wacky-Z

Hello, WackyZ here. I helped Human2 on the way to work.

I paid for and pumped the gas at the gas station. Cars need fuel to make them go.

I also helped navigate and monitored the speed of the vehicle in question too.

I went along to see what all this fuss was about for what the humanz call ELECTION DAY.

Hi....Boris,

I am here ..... Dr.Kröbner and Bruno have helped me and welcomed me warmly..







After a brief look out the window, I first made ​​a nap .... Bruno has allowed me to sleep on his pillow .......jet lag...zzzzzzzz





bye, bye yours Wacky-Z

Hi Mummy,

it snowed jipihh ..
We drove in the Hils, these are just a few miles, here is some information about the region where I am.

The Hils is a range of hills in Germany's Central Uplands that is up to 480.4 m high. It is located in the districts of Holzminden, Hildesheim and Northeim, in the state of Lower Saxony.Geography
The heavily forested massif of the Hils, which is part of the Leine Uplands and Weser-Leine Uplands, is immediately southeast of the knife edge ridge known as the Ith. It is located roughly northwest of Einbeck between Holzen to the west and Delligsen to the east




Dr.Kröbner has chosen a Christmas tree and BrunoAusTirol and I have built a snowman ... then we have taken a walk through the snow











a break must be



Now quickly go home, warm up.....brrrr



bye,bye...huggs and kisses

Hi Mumm,

look I  helped BrunoAusTirol driving the car....



on the way to hanover....



but the other people have looked so funny, it's not normal that a turtle draws a car, so we sat down front..



long way....



finally hanover...
in the background you see the Marktkirche.
The Marktkirche S. Georgii et Jacobi (English: Market church Sts George and James), commonly known as Marktkirche ("The Church on the Marketplace"), is the main Lutheran church in Hanover, Germany. It was built in the 14th century and, together with the nearby Old Town Hall, is considered the southernmost example of the North German brick gothic (Norddeutsche Backsteingotik) architectural style. The roof and the vaults of the naves were destroyed in an air raid in 1943 and restored in 1952.

The church is a Hallenkirche (hall church). Above the nave and two aisles rises a monumental saddleback roof. The high western tower was a symbol for the power and the wealth of the citizens of the town. It is still one of the highest towers in Lower-Saxony and a landmark of the city.


I have made ​​some window-shopping, especially I liked the plush horses ....



tomorrow is Christmas Eve ... I'm very excited and must still wrap my gift for Dr.Kröbner

Hello from Wacky-Z

yesterday we made a nice trip....first in the car...on the highway to...



...Fritzlar



Fritzlar is a small German town (pop. 15,000) in the Schwalm-Eder district in northern Hesse, 160 km (99 mi) north of Frankfurt, with a storied history. It can reasonably be argued that the town is the site where the Christianization of northern Germany (north and east of the Roman Limes) began and the birthplace of the German empire as a political entity.

The town has a medieval center ringed by a wall with numerous watch towers. Thirty-eight meters (125 ft) high, the Grauer Turm ("Grey Tower") is the highest remaining urban defense tower in Germany.


BrunoAusTirol and I are a bit buggered by the city...... this small street called Fischgässchen....behind the wall are very old houses



I did not make it. On the plate is some information about these houses, unfortunately not in English...it means...
Curia were designated as the home of a Säkularkanonikers, a canon or a canoness, mainly for individual buildings are representative district in immunity to the church



At the end of the alley you have this great view of the Cathedral



another view....



and now some information..The St. Peter's Cathedral is one of the most beautiful Romanesque-Gothic churches in Hesse.

Three-aisled basilica
The Cathedral of Fritzlar measures 43 meters (from the basement to the top). He continues to shape the cityscape of the small town in the Schwalm-Eder-Kreis (formerly Circle Fritzlar-Homberg). The three-aisled basilica in Fritzlar is considered one of the most beautiful in Germany.


Collegiate Church of St. PeterAb the 11th Century, built and rebuilt several times, combines the Cathedral of St. Peter Roman and Gothic styles. In the oldest part of the Fritzlarer Domes are the crypts, which can also be viewed as the Cathedral, which, amongst other things, "Henry Cross" and some of the oldest monstrances the German-speaking.

In 2004, the cathedral in Fritzlar the honor to be allowed to carry the title of Papal Basilica, bestowed by Pope John Paul II at the request of the diocesan bishop of Fulda, Heinz Josef Algermissen Mgr
The construction of the Romanesque-Gothic church of St. Peter was the end of the 11th Century began. Here Henry I was crowned king. Fritzlar but at no time was bishop.

and another view...



The city hall, first documented in 1109, with a stone relief of St. Martin, the town's patron saint, is the oldest in Germany still in use for its original purpose.





a little break before one of the oldest houses in Fritzlar, it is now the Tourist Information



I'm sitting here on the Roland fountain on the market square.
Many houses in the town center, notably around the market square, date from the 15th to 17th centuries and have been carefully maintained or restored.




Finally, I've looked in the cathedral ....look the Krippchen



what a nice trip..

In the evening we were alone and have a pillow fight made​​.
When Andrea and Martin came back , we have situated in the bed and read ....... very brave.

Hello again...

Baltrum is a barrier island off the coast of East Frisia (German: Ostfriesland), in Germany, and is a municipality in the district of Aurich, Lower Saxony. It is located in-between the chain of the seven inhabited East Frisian Islands. Baltrum is the smallest island in this chain by area and inhabitants....

We have made ​​a long walk across the island.....





If you climbed up onto an embankment somewhere on the North Sea coast to take a look at the sea, you could be in for a disappointment - there's not a drop of water to be seen! Instead a broad, barren flatness stretches away before you. But don't panic, the North Sea will be back - in the Wadden Sea, the water ebbs and flows twice a day, in a six hour cycle. Giving rise, between Den Helder in the Netherlands and Esbjerg in Denmark, to a 10,000 square kilometre the like of which is found nowhere else in the world..






here I am looking for mussels



a little break..



there are many information boards...



lIn order to protect this natural landscape on Niedersachsen's North Sea coast, the area was made a conservation area in 1986. Since 2009, the Niedersachsen Wadden Sea National Park is part of the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Wadden Sea. The 288,000 hectare Niedersachsen Wadden Sea national park covers the tidal flats between the rivers Ems and Elbe, including the East Friesian islands lying just off the coastarge wetland





Sea buckthorn is a typical plant here, found near the coast forming thickets on fixed dunes and sea cliffs
