Frühlingsgefühle & Hochwasser / Spring fever & floods

(edited)

Hallo zusammen,
strahlender Sonnenschein und fast 14° Grad...Frühlingsgefühle frei Haus. Da mein Mann heute arbeiten musste, haben mein Sohn und ich uns kurzentschlossen auf unserer Räder geschwungen und unsere 1. Fahrradtour in diesem Jahr unternommen.

Hello everyone,
bright sunshine and almost 14° degrees... spring fever is here. As my husband had to work today, my son and I decided to hop on our bikes and go for our first bike ride of the year.

Der Himmel war annähernd wolkenlos und überall waren Spaziergänger, Radfahrer und Jogger unterwegs oder man sah Menschen in den Gärten wuseln und alle genossen das herrliche Wetter. Oh wie habe ich das vermisst. Morgen soll es zwar schon wieder den ganzen Tag regnen, aber umso mehr haben wir das gute Gefühl heute in uns aufgenommen.

The sky was almost cloudless and there were walkers, cyclists and joggers everywhere or you could see people bustling about in the gardens and everyone was enjoying the glorious weather. Oh how I have missed that. It's supposed to rain again all day tomorrow, but we've soaked up the good feeling all the more today.

Bei unserem ersten kurzen Stop haben wir festgestellt, dass die Werre bereits wieder über die Ufer getreten ist und Teile des Sielparks erneut überschwemmt sind. Wir hatten bereits zu Weihnachten starkes Hochwasser in unserer Region, also könnt Ihr Euch vorstellen, wie viel es in den letzten Wochen bei uns geregnet hat.

Dort wo ihr die Bäume aus dem Wasser ragen seht, haben wir im Sommer noch das ein oder andere Picknick gemacht:

During our first short stop, we noticed that the Werre had already burst its banks again and that parts of the Sielpark were flooded again. We already had severe flooding in our region at Christmas, so you can imagine how much it has rained here in the last few weeks.
Where you can see the trees sticking out of the water is where we used to have a picnic or two in the summer:

Bevor wir die Werre über eine Brücke überquerten, haben wir noch einen weiteren kurzen Stop eingelegt und darüber gestaunt, wie breit der Fluss an dieser Stelle durch das Hochwasser geworden ist und mit welcher Geschwindigkeit er durch das Flussbett trieb. Im Sommer gehen an dieser Stelle immer viele Stand-Up-Paddler und Kanu-Fahrer ins Wasser, welches hier normalerweise ganz gemächlich vor sich hin fließt. Jetzt erschein es wie ein reißender Strom.

Before crossing the Werre over a bridge, we made another short stop and marveled at how wide the river had become at this point due to the high water and the speed at which it floated through the riverbed. In summer, many stand-up paddlers and canoeists enter the water at this point, which normally flows at a very leisurely pace. Now it seems like a raging torrent.

Wir waren nun schon eine ganze Weile unterwegs, und die Wege wurden immer matschiger und waren teilweise nicht passierbar, da sie unter Wasser standen. So wurde aus unserer Fahrradtour schon fast ein kleines Abenteuer. Ein paar Mal war es dermaßen matschig und glitschig, dass meine Räder beinahe wegrutschten. Ich sah mich zwischendurch tatsächlich schon im Matsch liegen...ich hatte jedoch Glück und konnte mich auf dem Fahrrad halten ;)
Unsere Route mussten wir ein paar Mal ändern, da immer wieder das Wasser eine Weiterfahrt verhinderte.

We had been on the road for quite a while now and the paths were getting muddier and muddier and were sometimes impassable as they were under water. So our bike tour almost turned into a little adventure. A few times it was so muddy and slippery that my wheels almost slipped off. I actually saw myself lying in the mud from time to time... but I was lucky and managed to stay on my bike ;)
We had to change our route a few times as the water kept preventing us from continuing.

Um wieder nach Hause zu kommen, wollten wir dann schließlich die Flutmulde durchqueren, in der Annahme, dass diese wieder passierbar wäre. Nach dem letzten Hochwasser an Weihnachten konnte man hier eigentlich wieder durchfahren. Leider falsch gedacht...auch hier kein durchkommen, es sei denn, wir wären geschwommen.

To get back home, we wanted to cross the flood trough, assuming that it would be passable again. After the last flood at Christmas, it was actually possible to drive through here again. Unfortunately, we were wrong... we couldn't get through here either, unless we had swum.

So mussten wir unsere Tour erneut verlängern und weiter zur nächsten Brücke fahren, um die Flutmulde zu überqueren. Aus einer geplanten kleinen Radtour ist so eine recht große Runde geworden, die Dank des tollen Wetters richtig Spaß gemacht hat. Ein toller Vorgeschmack auf den nahenden Frühling.

Ich wünsche Euch noch ein entspanntes Restwochenende ;)

So we had to extend our tour again and continue to the next bridge to cross the flood plain. What was supposed to be a short bike ride turned into quite a long tour, which was great fun thanks to the fantastic weather. A great foretaste of the approaching spring.
I wish you a relaxing rest of the weekend ;)
