At the beach… humans.

The summary of the day: how can someone be so lucky to have dark clouds before, behind, left and right… but blue sky (more or less) over himself? I have no idea… but I am thanksfull 🙂 Somehow a short … Read More »

To Hvide Sande : 60km of headwinds

To Oksbol, windy 49km and tal ships!

The first task of the day was to sent a letter back home… I must say: Deutsche Post has outsourced some of their shop to food shops: bad idea. Everything go too long. Or do I see too much optimising … Read More »
