Stillwater Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Another tour in my home territory, covering sights that took me years to collect in RL... From Bremerhaven-Luneort I crossed Nordholz... ... and Cuxhaven. We were regularly having field hockey matches versus Schwarz-Weiss Cuxhaven in my youth. Their slogan was "Alte Liebe, Kugelbake, hej hej!". But here the famous Kugelbake is missing - ships would get grounded here! Westwards into the Weser mouth... ... and to tower #1: Lighthouse Weser. Tower #2: Lighthouse Rote Sand. A short hop from there up to Helgoland... ... where we clearly miss the Lange Anna rock. Eastwards to the gigantic beach of St.-Peter-Ording... ... and to the next famous lighthouse around: Westerheversand. Surprising they use it in the advertisements for Jever beer: It is in a different state, some 5 h of driving distance from the Jever brewery... Northbound ... ... to Pellworm, ... ... Föhr ... ... and finally Sylt. Let´s see if we find a cheap place to dine & sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Super series of shots Gerold. I took my first GEN flight from Bremerhaven but last night I took off from Jade Weser across the Jade Bight to Bremerhaven and up the coast to Nordholz where I landed as tiredness set in. You see I am going to fly along the coast to Heringsdorf having started island hopping at Borkum last week. The final funny thing is that my plane last night was the Skymaster D-ICEC. I am very upset as the salesman said it was the only one around in those colours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously this plane fits to the region, as it was also recommended to @VH-KDK by his rental plane office in Nordholz (see evidence in his post above).

Jack Sawyer Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I LOVE these tour shots! The one with the Jever lighthouse was terrific. I've been to Jever, it was really nice. I went to the "Beer Academy" and got a few awards. Still have them. What a great country! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember if you drank so many beers over a course of a week or so you'd get a wooden plaque with a medallion on it. The Jever Beer Acedemy, where you could sample all kinds of excellent German beers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
