It's #FensterFreitag. Shall we sit down for a while and relax? ☺️
#Leer #EastFrisia #Altstadt #TooWarmForNovember
In front of a shop called ‘Minty Rose’ are two folding chairs and a table. They are painted in a pretty shade of blue. On each chair is a cushion with the words ‘Meer Mädchen' (Sea girl) written on it. The shop window is decorated with clothing and accessories, all in shades of pink and brown. This matches the front of the building, which is light in colour with a pinkish-brown tinge. Next to the shop window is an open green door. There are also plants in front of the window. I think it looks inviting.

#Leer under a 'sheep-y' #sky.
(I took this picture today and it has immediately become one of my favourite photos of Leer 🥰)

Blue water can be seen in the lower part of the picture. Above it is a blue sky with lots of small white clouds. They surely have a meteorological name, but I don't know what it is. Houses can be seen between the sky and the water. They have terraces facing the water. A little further on, the water bends. There are more houses there in the sun and a bridge connecting the two banks. It is pretty.

A golden autumn afternoon at Schloss Evenburg in #Leer, #EastFrisia.
#SilentSunday #castle #architecture
A beige castle in the neo-Gothic style lit by the autumn sun. This is its entrance with a few steps leading up to the front door. To its left and right are trees in orange colours. The sky is very cloudy. On the right side of the picture is a big white dot. That's a bride and her husband.

Holding on to the last moments of #summer ...
This is #Westerhammrich, a recreational area (approximately 1 km² in size) in #Leer. At the heart of the area is a lake, known as Kolksee. Whenever I am here, I am reminded of the Shire. Can you see it, too? 😊

Pink flowers blooming in the foreground. Behind them are meadows and trees. It is a sunny and cloudy day.A path leads through an archway made of branches. Beneath it are benches arranged in a semicircle facing each other. The trees are dressed in their late summer finery.That's how I like the cycle paths in East Frisia. Straight, concrete and trees on both sides. A small avenue in the sunshine.Another route I love to cycle along. It can be seen on the left of the picture. It leads past green meadows and trees, all under the vast East Frisian sky.

A telescope stands in front of a vast landscape with green meadows and a cloudy but blue sky. However, it is not long and thin, but rather a silver installation reminiscent of a Cyberman from Doctor Who. Someone has also painted eyelashes over the peepholes. It looks as if the telescope is looking at me.The same motif, but this time you can also see the mount on which the telescope is mounted. Behind it, fields stretch as far as the eye can see.

Today I'll show you why I love #EastFrisia so much. Let me present to you typical residents (photos 3, 5 and 7) and typical landscapes 😁
Photo 8 also does justice to #MeerMittwoch. Why, you ask? There's only a lake to be seen! Well, here in East Frisia, the sea (North Sea) is called ‘die See’ (the lake). Lakes (i.e. small, enclosed bodies of water) are called ‘Meer’ (sea) here. There is Ewiges Meer (Eternal Sea) and Großes Meer (Great Sea) – both of which are lakes 😊
Are you all confused now? Well, perfect moment to take a look at the pictures and relax, is it not? 😉

I look out onto a canal. Water lily leaves float on it. The sky is reflected in the water; it is blue. Meadows can be seen to the left and right, with a bridge and trees in the background. The sun is shining.For me, this image perfectly represents East Frisia. Vastness. Green meadows in the foreground, then a farmhouse and scattered trees. Above it all, an endless sky, blue with a few white clouds. I love the vast freedom here.Here you can see a typical East Frisian 🤭 A white sheep is lying relaxed on top of a dyke. It is looking to the left and eating.Another canal, this time with brown water. In the foreground, new trees are growing from upright tree trunks. There are bushes to the left and right of the canal. In the background, there is a road bridge, behind which is another bridge (for trains). And all this under a blue sky with pretty veil clouds.

Happy #FensterFreitag from the 'Rusty Rooster' café in #Leer, #Ostfriesland. Have a lovely weekend everyone!
#WindowFriday #EastFrisia
This photo was taken in one of my favourite cafés in Leer, called ‘Rusty Rooster’. My gaze falls out of the window onto a bright house across the street, on which the words ‘Bünting Tee’ are written in golden letters. The sun shines on it. Various bicycles are parked in front of the house. The interior of the café is painted light brown, and on the left wall is a mirror reflecting the house opposite. In front of the window, inside, is a green armchair, and the back of a red sofa with a blanket over it can be seen. It is a peaceful place, very cosy.

"#Leer Martitim" this weekend with plenty of boats and ... dogs 😊
#harbour #Ostfriesland #EastFrisia #DogsOfPixelfed #dogs #Seehunde
A long, white boat (perhaps this size is called a yacht – I have no experience with boats). Two strings with many, many colourful pennants are stretched across the deck. They are national flags. The boat is moored in a harbour, the water is grey, and so is the sky – with a few exceptions. Summer 2025 in Germany.There is a Dalmatian sitting on a ship. He has his head resting on the railing and looks like one of those ugly porcelain statues of Dalmatians. But he's real, I checked.Another dog. He is standing at the bow of a ship with his head bowed, because of a string that holds national flags right above him. He is looking in my direction. His mouth is slightly open. He is black and white and very cute. On the opposite bank, there are residential buildings with large balconies. Life there is pretty good, I reckon.Another white ship. It is called ‘D'ans’. This ship also has strings with colourful pennants hanging from them. This time, they are not national flags, but event pennants. Cloudy sky, but no rain.

A white boat with many small and colourful flags.Ein anderes Boot, ebenfalls mit vielen bunten Wimpeln daran. Der Himmel ist halb bewölkt, halb blau. Es sollte den ganzen Tag regnen. Tut es nicht.
