Hiking Trip to the Christmas Fair in Bad Wimpfen

Last weekend I attended another hiking trip offered by the Institute of Sports at the University. As Christmas season did already start, our goal was the Christmas market in Bad Wimpfen, one of the oldest Christmas markets in Germany. Fortunately, the weather was nice and we could enjoy some blue sky and sun during the trip. Of course we did not walk the whole way from Mannheim but we took a train to Bad Rappenau first. From there it was less than 10 km to walk, so we had more time to spend on the market. Apart from being one of the oldest, it also was a really nice market located just in the historic part of the city.

For this trip I took an old analog camera with me, an Olympus OM-1. As you can see I started with a color negative film and then switched to a black and white one as soon as we arrived at our destination.

Where Were We?

After spending far too many hours in front of the monitor I finally sorted all my pictures of my Thailand trip. I do not know if it is good or bad, but I came out with exactly 998 images… So now that they are processed and sorted I thought I could share a few more impressions of my trip.

The following series is from the Khao Yai national park. I went there for a one and a half day trip that you can book at various operators around the park. It all was pretty much organized but I still enjoyed watching all the different animals (mostly spiders and insects) and exploring the jungle atmosphere during a short trek we did.
