January 15th, 2011. On the way back from Ulm we pass - a new lake! All the snow is gone; instead, the thin Blau-Creek, we canoed last July, changed into a proud river and flooded the meadows between the small villages of Blaustein-Herrlingen and Arnegg. The area now looks quite different from autumn... Mighty impressed by the colours of the sunset, I stopped the car for a snapshot. Maybe I should come back during daylight.
