Summer beginning


Summer in Poland starts in June and is typically the warmest and brightest season of the year. The month of June is the strawberry season in Poland. You will find them everywhere. From strawberry smoothies and strawberry pierogi, to being sold at outdoor markets. 



July is supposedly the hottest month of the year, however, there is a possibility of a mild summer, when it winds from the West. Then it can be pretty cold and wet. But usually, they are good solid summers. The average temperatures are 25 degrees Celsius, which makes this season the best moment to travel and enjoy the beauty of Poland.

Externsteine - magical rock formation, Germany

Image
During travelling through the scenic Teutoburg Forest in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalianear, you can find the picturesque group of rocks a few kilometres from the town of Horn-Bad Meinberg. Its name - Extersteine - usually translates as stones of the ridge. This is a highly unusual rock formation. In an area otherwise devoid of large rocks, the soaring, slender columns of Externsteine stand out as they rise sharply and with no little majesty from the surrounding landscape. The 13 sandstone pillars have been ornamented over the millennia by human hand. Yet the true origins of the star stones can be discovered through geology. The unusual geological formation consists of a hard, erosion-resistant sandstone (so-called Osningsandstein), laid down during the early Cretaceous era about 100 million years ago. Thousands of years of erosion have washed the rocks from the surrounding soil and then were formed the surface of the stone. The rock formation stretches for seve
