A day off at the North Sea Island Nordseeinsel Langeoog is like a longer vacation in a compressed form to us. The moment you arrive at the pier, you only have eyes for all the maritime stuff around you.
Seagulls are crowing every around, the salty wind is whispering like "welcome" and the waves with their monotonous sound are giving you a peacefull feeling.
Today it was sunday and high time for tourists and even low tide but with 4 boats the ferry boat company somehow managed to bring them all over to the island.
We did nothing but spending the day at the beach. We played in water, jumped the waves and did a little boat ride. We had a good picnic with fruits and vegetables, took an extended sun-bath and nearly forgot the time when the clock stroke 4.30 p.m. and we had to hurry to catch the last boat back to the mainland.
But late in the evening, when I washed away a kilogram of beach sand and salt from my skin, I felt a bit sentimental...another vacation has gone. But none can take the images and memories of this day away from me.
