We used to play here when we were kids. Now my kids will play here.

Pfeffingen BL in the mist

This is on my way to work in this morning. It's almost as every other morning this time of year but today I missed the bus and had to wait for the next one for a half an hour. So I decided to go for a walk around Pfeffingen BL and take some pictures:


His every day walk, just a few hundred meters and back.

Ruine Pfeffingen (top right) above it all.

big wasp spider in Arlesheim BL

this cute little spider was seen in Arlesheim BL (Switzerland)

I have never seen a spider that size around here. So I headed back home and searched the internet for a description: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wespenspinne (German, the English article is not that detailed). And found out that this big Spider is acctually quite common in this area. For all the arachnophobic out there: this spider is harmless.
