Hey Ho let's go

The first day of vacation starts well-rested with rain at 7:15 a.m. Mind you, a record time for Jule. While the rest of the family has breakfast with grandma, Alex weighs the car trailer again. This time fully loaded because SAFETY IS IMPORTANT. Shortly after 9, we set off. Grandma waves with tears in her eyes...At the highway entrance, the first disappointment - full closure. Search for the next entrance. That takes time. The kids are asleep...At lunchtime, it's getting restless. Jule doesn't want to be distracted with spelt sticks anymore and Philip asks for the hundredth time when we'll finally arrive. We find a rest area. Jule gets her porridge and the rest get grandma's sandwiches. An hour later, we continue. Jule doesn't feel like sitting anymore and is hardly entertained. Philip watches DVDs #unpedagogical yeah... Second kids' nap. Dad steps on the gas and is annoyed by the immense fuel consumption. After a short refueling and coffee stop, we continue to the Ecktannen campsite in Waren. Nice place but very crowded. Free choice of location - a bit annoying. Mom slowly getting low on blood sugar. Hunger makes you angry, so quickly eat something at the bistro. Good frozen food but filling. In the background, a solo entertainer plays 'Manic Monday', almost fitting but today is Tuesday. Another short round to the lake. Jule rubs her eyes. Mom puts her to bed, the men make ourselves at home. No one is getting old tonight...
