Thank you for giving us this gift! My mother was born in Germany but moved to the US in 1928. Her whole life she would say that her heart's desire was to go back to Germany before she died. In 2000 I gave her her dream and took her on vacation. One of the places we visited was the Black Forest. This video reminds me of the wonderful time we had there and brings back memories of that trip. My mother never stopped talking about our trip to Germany and the joy it brought her. She died in 2011. Blessings to you and Joerg!

Oh they do. I have relatives who are hereditary foresters in the Schwarzwald(Black forest in English.) my dad was Us Airforce, but we never got transfered there. Would have liked to have met relatives there and in Garmisch. He was able in the late 1950s to do a TDY to England and Germany . Unfortunately when in Germany, he didn't have time to go to Nuremberg, to see the family history book kept by family. Glad and happy you are bringing such wonderful places to us.

And the moss growing is bright deep verdant hue - I remember earth looking reddish and, at autumn, a crystalline mist in the air!!! Then suddenly a little boy appeared from behind the trees with toy sword in hand: demanding to know who we - interlopers to "his kingdom" - were! Only one visit there 40 years ago - but vividly memorable. Gott segnet euch - alle!!!❤🙏🏼🎆
