Stuttgart

We continue to enjoy nice fall weather, beautiful colors on the trees. We are spending a day in Stuttgart, going out for dinner tonight.

Pfälzer Wald

We came to Siegelbach to visit my parents two days ago. The weather is very pleasant fall weather and we took a nice walk in the woods today and are enjoying the time with family.

Munich

We spent Wednesday afternoon in the warm water of the Blue Lagoon in the South of Iceland, wonderful! Then we flew to Munich yesterday and spent a nice evening in Garching. Today we are taking the train to Kaiserslautern. It is much warmer here than it was in Iceland.

Iceland

We came into Iceland yesterday morning and spent a couple of hours walking around Reykjavik. Later we drove to Nesjavellier, where we are staying in a very nice hotel. In the afternoon we hiked around the area (8 km), which has a lot of hot water gushing out. There is a thermal plant there as well. The pool at the hotel is a pleasant 38 degrees, feels good after walking a lot.

Today we drove the Golden Circle and hiked in Thingvellier (8.5 km). Wonderful landscape, and the weather was nice and sunny for most of the day. We had to scrape the ice of the car windows this morning though, and the maximum temperature today was 6 degrees Celsius. Fortunately, we have winter clothing with us.

Hot water everywhere, but cold wind

Hiking in Thingvellier was great

Toronto

We are spending a day in Toronto, not having been here for over 40 years. It was very interesting to walk around the city. The weather is quite warm and humid, but it didn’t rain.
