“Don’t look at it as a Blog – It’s content distribution.”

Heh, I thought blogging’s dead?!

It’s the first of May – a public holiday in my part of Switzerland. I am listening to BBC radio and reading news distributed via Facebook and Twitter.

Random useless fact of the day:
I woke up at 5:40. For the second day in a row.

I have been posting snapshots on Flickr:

And may I say that my set of really boring flower snapshots is… well… really, truly boring.

I received an offline comment on this phrase on my Flickr profile:

Unhindered by talent or technical skills, I hope I can at least convey the fun I’m having.

Questions and random observations:

By the way, where can i find the best samosas in Basel? And I still haven’t solved the issue of best dim sum in Basel.

Which Klippan cover should i get for my Klippan couch?

Via this tweet, celebrate the end of winter with this Italian children’s song

Fruit fool:
I was just reminded of my first cooking class at Saint Andrew’s: we made fruit fool – with custard and seasonal fruit.

Twitter has changed my reading habits. If a webpage is full of text… So I’d better stop soon.

Bike tour to Bad Säckingen and back

I wanted to avoid cycling along the Rhine cos it is so monotonous and boring on the German side (done it before and found it boring). I started ok but somewhere between Märt and Efringen-Kirchen all bicycle path signs took me down to the river. So I ended up on the Rhein-Radweg. On my way back, I took a different route via Istein village.

About 20 km one way. Easy ride.

Saint Peter

Via Weil am Rhein, Binzen and Wollbach, along the railway tracks to Kandern.

Easy ride.

 
Wow, Google Maps now offers a bicycle option in its Get Directions menu. Though not for the route below.
