15 000 cranes at the lake but few caravans and mobile homes.

I took these photos yesterday when the weather was slightly better.

Yesterday they counted 15 000 cranes at the lake and more will arrive. The weather isn’t inviting though, cold strong wind and some rain mixed in as well. Normally there are loads of caravans and mobile homes parked by the lake but I drove pass that parking today and I could only see a few. I think there’s space for over 50 caravans/ mobile homes and they all pay a small fee that goes directly to buying food for both the cranes and all other migrating birds.

I went to my job coach today, we all must have one when we’ve been unemployed for a longer period of time. I already do most of the things we are supposed to do but I have never really used LinkedIn before so she taught me a lot about that. After that I went to a grocery store and bought what I will need for the coming week. Not much but the food prices are so high that if I had bought for the same amount of money before Covid I would most likely have had food for a month πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ We really only have one low price store chain here, Lidl from Germany, so there is more or less no competition between the other stores so while they make huge profits they really have no will to keep the prices low. It has gone so far that if Lidl wants to build a new store in a town other store owners do their best to stop it. Β Besides Lidl we only really have three other companies because they bought the few others we had.

I hope this cooler weather and with the help of some rain will keep the pollen down a bit. My nose is stuffed and I’m so tired all the time. Even if I sleep all night I’m more tired when I wake up that I was when going to bed πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ It is at least not a cold of any kind, lots of that going around here now. So I’m pretty sure I’ll have an early night again πŸ™‚ when I’m done here I’ll have some tea and an ice cream, not that it will help but it’s never wrong to have ice cream πŸ™‚

Have a great day!
