Sunday Trip

We went a little hiking yesterday...

Isabelle is to small to go really hiking with us...

in the Bavarian Alps...

so we went up to the mountain pasture...

to watch some cattle resting in the autum sun.

A silver thistle ( Carlina acaulis ).

 You are not allowed to pick them, they are protected here.
