Die letzten Meter sind oft die Schwierigsten...
... schoeneres als nach einem harten Radlertag sein Nachtmal auf dem kleinen Benzinkocher zuzubereiten, den Sonnenuntergang zu bestaunen, wenig spaeter im flauschigen Schlafsack zu liegen, gedanklich den Tag Revue passieren zu lassen, dem Wind zu lauschen und vor dem wohlverdienten Schlaf den gigantischen Sternenhimmel durch den offenen Zelteingang zu bewundern: Freiheit pur!
