Herten in de wei

Autumn deer

They are here again!

We see each other every day, Mazy, me & the deer. They are both in the meadow in front, and in the meadow behind our house. And sometimes also in our garden. In summer they are less visible, I suspect they are then in the nature reserve further away. But now that ‘natural’ grass is a bit scarcer and farmers have sown tender young grass, they are ubiquitous. Photographing them, however, is not so easy: after all, I am always out and about with Mazy. After a few spirited chases, Mazy seems to have resigned herself to the fact that deer are not to be herded and just plays with her ball. Hopefully, the deer will soon learn that Mazy is neither a wolf nor a threat.

  • Bátorkő Vára

    In the vicinity of Várpalota, near the Bakony Mountains, there are beautiful, well-maintained walking and cycling trails, ideal for trips in April and October. The Mapy app makes it easier to find routes than Google Maps. A favourite walk is the 10 km trip to the ruins of Bátorkő vára, via the ‘red cross’ path and back along the ‘red stripes’ cycle path. Plants such as blue iris, vinca and wild garlic grow here in the wild, giving off a strong scent.

  • Cycling tour around eastern Balaton

    We went on a three-day cycling tour along Lake Balaton, with an extra loop through the Bakony region to cover sufficient distance. We started in Berhida and cycled via Eplény along quiet country roads to the north coast. Via Balatonfüred and the coast of the Tihany peninsula, we crossed over to the south shore at Szántód. On the third day, we temporarily left the shore, cycled over cliffs and forest roads, and ended up back in Berhida. We encountered unpaved or impassable sections, sometimes overgrown paths, and busy stretches without cycle paths; but everywhere we enjoyed views, tranquillity, and flexibility.

  • Budapest

    If anyone knows anything about Hungary, they have probably heard about its capital, Budapest.
    We had been there two years ago, and visited a shop or government building regularly in recent months, but it was high time to pay another tourist visit to our capital.
