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.
More inhabitants of East Frisia. Four brown horses stand in a pasture in the shade of a tree.
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.
A field of sunflowers in the background. In front of it, a plant with pink flowers.
A lake in the sunlight under a slightly cloudy sky. It is surrounded by bushes and trees. Very peaceful.
Small silver figures are mounted on rusty posts. They are three cyclists. I would say they are aliens, but perhaps they are meant to represent humans. Either way, this region is great for cyclists and they are honoured time and time again. What's not to like!?
Sheep again. This time it's a brown one with a white patch and a white forehead. It has light-coloured eyes and is looking straight into the camera. Behind it is another sheep, this one dark brown and eating. They are very cute.
