Old german villages with old german people

Im Wald, in der Náhe von Liebenwalde, 12-04-2000. ¨Wird Regen geben im Nachmittag¨, an old ameteur cyclist told me this morning while we cycled along under am ominous looking overcast sky. Looking up at that gray mass that spanned the heaven I knew for a fact that he was right. The first...
