The Largest Wine Barrel in the World
For the first two days on our recent hiking trip to the Palatinate, our base was the town of Bad Dürkheim, which is the main tourist centre of the area, beloved by mainly local visitors (German, Dutch, Belgian) for its pretty townscape, its lovely surroundings – miles after miles of vineyards – and its long…

Always love a great walk and moved to our place in Calgary so we could walk everywhere. It’s a 25 minute walk to go downtown and we prefer to do that rather than take the car.
I see so much more when walking and it offers the opportunity to engage in conversation with others you may pass.
I am with you. I love to walk morning, noon, and even at night. I am fortunate to live across a pretty park with lots of pathways and paseos. Walking in the evening is therapeutic. A good way to unwind.
I just love going out for a walk. I have parks near where I live. There is the city and canals too. Walking is a great way of clearing my head.
There are days I love just going for a walk in the neighborhood. There is something about being outside the clears the mind and refreshes the spirit. I live in a great area for the outdoors but I also LOVE walking in big cities.
As you can see from my recent post, walking in the rain isn’t bad either :)
