Raspberry Monsters

Nothing beats the taste of fresh fruit, especially when it is picked by your own hands.



Today we had wonderful weather a so decided to venture to Lödings Farm on Lake Ratzeburg.




The first adventure was to take a wagon ride behind a “BIG” tractor. Emmett could hardly contain himself as it pulled up.




Then the fun started. Stella had an eagle eye for spotting ripe raspberries and she was at a good level. I think many people didn’t want to bend down to pick the “low hanging fruit”.



After picking 2 kilos of Raspberries we met Oma & Opa with Oma-Ur and Franzi for coffee at the outside café.




There was a huge sandpile (I can’t call it a box, there was nothing closing it in), little tractors and the “Straw Box”… A little hut with straw in it for the kids to play in.




Where’s waldo? For a moment we lost sight of Stella. After scanning the horizon someone finally spotted her hat popping out like “Wilson” from home improvement.




Once home the kids turned into little raspberry monsters.
