Ein Traum

Nachdem wir das Hotel endlich nach mehrmaligem Fragen erreicht hatten, war es ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt. Die Zimmer sehr gemütlich, das Hotel sehr gut gelegen, die Gartenanlage ein Traum. Leider war am Ankunftstag eine große Hochzeit, so dass wir den Pool nicht nutzen konnten, aber es gibt genug Ausweichmöglichkeiten. Am späten Nachmittag verdunkelte sich die Sonne, bedingt durch die Rauchschwaden der weit entfernten Feuer. Ein sicher sehr seltenes Phänomen.
