Dharmanandji checking his email in HereNow4U officeWe had decided both to have 2 days off after "Application Of Preksha Meditation For Well Being” UK tour, so we took the car for an hour ride to visit "Spreewald", a biosphere reservation, with hundreds of small islands and channels connected to the river Spree. Only 200 hundred years ago civilisation went into the former primeval forest & everglades.
Stork at homeAfter dropping our luggage at the hotel the weather was still wonderful and we went for a typical Spreewald punt, a round trip on the channels of this area.
We started from Lübbenau
