Escaping the heat: first swim!

Today was yet another holiday in Germany, so back we went back to Zossen, outside Berlin. It was plenty hot so we were in search of a lake, or 'See' in German, called Melensee.


Here's a tiny frog.


And some very healthy, happy flowers...




 We found Mellensee, with the help of a few friendly signs. :)




This picture is in a shaded area, but the lake was quite big and provided a refreshing swim on such a hot day.

  1. Too bad you are not on someone's payroll with all those holidays! But I'm glad you have a handy and lovely escape from the heat!

  2. How hot is it? And is it humid? Such a beautiful lake and drive to it. How far away is it from Berlin?
    So glad you had a good swim.

  3. Yesterday was around 90 F, and not really humid- a good breeze helps. Zossen is about a 40 minute drive, and the lake another 5 min. But apparently there are many other lakes near Berlin. So I look forward to finding them! (I too wish I had an employer, but I am trying to make the best of the current situation.)
