We made a stop in Langenlonsheim near Mainz to visit a friend of my Mum. We stayed for a night and had a very good time there. In the morning I had a long walk with Pavlov to the near Hermitage cut into rocks in the middle ages. The last hermit lived there until 1827. He died after 52 years of service.

Your beautiful flower photos together with the story of the Hermitage make a wonderful contrast.
The mention of Langenlonsheim brought a flood of memories as that’s where my dad went to glider fly as a youth/young man.

Your photos bring back many memories. I lived in Bretzenheim while attending the university and Mainz and have visited the Einsiedelei in the past. Thanks for sharing.
