Schlittenfahrt / Sleigh ride

Die Mädchen haben immer neidisch geschaut, wenn ihre Cousins mit dem Schlitten unterwegs waren. Aber hier gibt es endlich genug Schnee.

The girls always were envious when they saw their cousins on a sleigh tour. But here they have found enough snow at last.



Mami hat sehr schnell 2 Schals gestrickt. Die Mützen sind improvisiert.

Mummy knitted two scarves very swiftly. The hats had to be improvised.



Liebknecht zieht den Schlitten durch die Winterlandschaft. Schön!

Liebknecht pulls the sleigh through a winterly landscape. It‘s beautiful!



Wer kommt denn da von hinten?

Who is approaching from behind?



Mia! Das ist gefährlich! Fall nicht raus!

Mia! That‘s dangerous! Don‘t topple over!



Jetzt steht auch Emme. Der andere Schlitten holt rasch auf.

Now Emme also is standing. The other sleigh gets closer quickly.



Hans ist viel schneller als Liebknecht. Julchen, Clara und Adelheid sind begeistert.

Hans is much faster than Liebknecht. Julchen, Clara, and Adelheid are pleased with him.



Dort steht ein großer Schneemann. Den müssen wir uns näher ansehen.

There is a tall snowman. We have to take a closer look.



Den haben die Jungs gestern gebaut. Ist der riesig! Winter macht einfach Spaß.

The boys built it yesterday. It‘s huge! Winter is just fun.

    1. Yes it was a very handsome snowman. Mia and Emme were impressed with Peter's and Rick's work.

  2. Enjoyed everything about this post. Very envious of your snow, and am plotting how to get a similar sleigh.

    1. We were so happy to find that place where there still was a lot of snow. We're usually not spoilt by weather....
      We used two vintage kiddie sleds with boxes on top. My horse's harness is an old dog leash, my sister had kept a doggie harness that belonged to her husky. Just the right size for a rocking horse!

  3. Great photos! One sees the wind in the horses manes. I remember it was a very very cold wind... THe boys are very proud of their snowman.

    1. This place is well known for its icy winds in winter - but as a compensation, it can get baking hot in summer!

    1. It was a perfect day for a photo shoot - though I had to work on the photos, as my camera seemingly believed we were planning an American Night ;)
      But the kiddies and horses look so great in the snowy landscape.
