Coronavirus pandemic. Then its off to the heart of the state of mecca and vote for palm out where you have visited the mill dates before the coronavirus pandemic and finally on check in present to. Show you what you can enjoy on the island of whos a donkey in sama. Off to a van amanda. Fresh air a short trip somewhere like to the baltic goals to its something ive been missing these past months just like many of us the coronavirus been damage has disrupted travel worldwide my 1st trip after the easing of frustrations in germany took me to vitamin d. In the state of mecklenburg questor from arabia. Here from the lighthouse you can get a good view of the baltic resort. Traveling in coronavirus times how does that look like with all the social distancing in hygiene rules its summer in germany so its high season and that means it can get really crowded on the beach in restaurants in hotels and i would like to know how those people in charge and the tourists are dealing with this situation here in volume and. Holidaymakers are back here involved in the end and the baltic coast and of course im curious to find out more about whats brought them here. Where youre from cologne what brought you here and it was like baltic sea coast is the nicest coast we know weve been coming here for years. And do you still get that holiday feeling despite the coronavirus been damming up under me. Restrictions like putting on a mask in stores arent a big deal apart from that there arent many restrictions we go biking swimming and jogging so for us it absolutely feels like a holiday just takes good to get out again after the long lockdown. As long do you notice a few restrictions. But by and large when youre at dulles you dont need to sit its all. Next month and. Comply with social distancing and hygiene routes they going overboard yeah yeah but not between the 2 of us. Give me a kiss. I was raised to have a lovely holiday. Time to pay a visit to the beach and ill rent the beach chair. It will protect me from the wind and help with social distancing oh yes though id like to rent a beach share were not alone welcome no problem but what do i need to do. Nothing we send 2 people along wholl make sure the beach chair. Disinfected all you need to do is sit down relax and have a nice time. Or. Is this your best beach chair not best i dont know about that id say its a very good beach chair many are newer but this is the one thats free right now thats how it works awful sue it has to be disinfected 1st. Yes we have to unless the chair only goes out once a day. Then it has 24 hours to air out. But if it goes out several times a day but this is what we do get with the someone so if it hasnt aired out mathias takes care of it that was much yes then dr mathias gets it nice and clean thank amazing ideas. The chairs like this have been a fixture by the baltic and the north sea since the 19th century there especially popular in germany. Now all thats missing is a quick dip in the water. I dont want. I have to admit diving into this chilly water it is just 17 degrees celsius is a bit daunting at 1st but once youre in and swimming its wonderful. Its clear that the tourists are back despite the coronavirus but how are the people who live here fairing. For im off to meet man woman who works here as a lifeguard. What do you need to be a lifeguard. You have to be Athletic Team player know how to swim and like the beach. Thats. What that is then what is the coronavirus mean for you as a lifeguard in that. Yeah at the start of the season we introduced various Safety Measures and restrictions. We have protective equipment for the lifeguards for the swimmers who need 1st date we have masks and so forth the body gets to be called we hand over the bandits rather than sticking them on ourselves yet i thought that overall we havent had all that many covert cases in this part of germany in which there was no baggage and there arent all that many restrictions. On it you can see that at the beach when it comes to the difference in the thickness of the tunnel the muscles what about an emergency if you have to do mouth to mouth resuscitation mr were lucky because we have manual resuscitator so were trained to use these handheld masts with self inflating bags which require no direct physical contact. For titles so what do you like about the baltic as it is and ill see. The view the waves its always different in every kind of weather you never tire of it as. The sun is really nice this year so dont forget your sunscreen i. Q. But theres also a bit clearer this year so the view is really nice and if i might head here because of. All right thank your mom wouldnt. Mind next stop is a tour of the harbor. On board the campaign bus the 1st pass along the i touched this stretch of water that extends from the fishing port of fundamental to the hostile harbor. Divonne the minda seaside resort is actually the district of the city off lost. In the hostile carver were greeted by the cruise ship terminal normally its busy some 200. 00 cruise ships docked here and every year. The last stop shipyards where cruise ships are built are also unusually quiet and its still not clear how and when things will start back up again. An hour later were on our way back to fundamental. Tourism has a long tradition here the 1st hotels for tourists opened in the early 19th century. As i stroll along the probably not on this nice summer day and it looks like things are back to normal the way they were before the coronavirus trysts. These are all gone you know the tourism director youre probably happy to see how packed it is here absolutely a report on sites from ones that were very happy to be dug out since the 25th of may we have been able to welcome visitors again from across germany got a month and theres nothing nicer not so especially compared to the weeks before that stuff was was very few but now we can go back to doing what were best at providing Hospitality One really gets to be the one to provide strength feeling if there are lots of tourists but the truce ships arent here they didnt notice they are missing doesnt look at this is what the courts want here yes were missing the cruise ships cost normally we have close to 200. 00 docking here which bring in international crowd to rough stock in volume and also in monaco no one has the internets and this International Element is missing that really is theirs thats a shame because it adds to the flair. And the cruise ships are important to our economy and if they have a chance for us missions what are your hopes for a host of on the mend in the coming months side as a religion on 1st we hope that well get through the summer well with the preparations weve taken and that our vacationers enjoy themselves are guests with whom it doesnt and that the locals can see us practicing safe tourism so that we can come. Through the situation stronger than ever. And of course we hope that we wont have to shut down our Hotels Restaurants and businesses for 2 and a half months again a few summers and. That would be a shame and a disaster you would hope so you were a holiday destination and we want to be able to provide that for our guests sorry thank you and all the best but you know. Everythings pretty relaxed here involved in the tourists are happy they can travel again and enjoy the baltic and so all the people who make their living from tourism. The 2nd stop on our check in special issue takes us to the mecklenburg Lake District in the heart of the state of mechlin both for me. This is my 1st trip to the land of a 1000 lakes otherwise known as the mecklenburg Lake District which is the North Eastern germany theres water as far as the eye can see its still peaceful. This is like a postcard of the region the view of germanys largest lake the mule its from this church taught in the world and im going to explore mecklenburg slick district with a houseboat. I dont need a license to pilot the boat around the lakes but i do need some basic instructions ill. Do it lets go aboard. But it should. Get done below are your quarters on the port side as a 1st cabin. At over here is a toilet and a shower. Is now will go up to the salon which is also the control room. That you were this is the echo sound are very important because it will help us avoid running aground of our 4th. But the best view is from up on the day with a heel into the impala done to look at all the signs i have to learn the front line behind me he will model it does it not on. You know how to. Manage but its not to be blown in the harbor that is bad nautical manners. Right or left in any star borat site. Lets set sail bets and dream as my colleague hes coming along for the right finally we can begin our adventure. Im doing pretty well make new its very big and spacious and theres not much traffic so its a great place for a beginner to practice his skippering skills. But. Were now involved in the biggest telling on lake movements and right in the middle of a popular holiday spot. Its also where youll find the movie at seal Nature Discovery Center there i can learn more about the nature here in the Lake District and then move its national park. Was there. In the garden i meet biologist michael vala of course theres more to be found here then ducks and swans indoors there are aquariums with all kinds of local fish so that sturgeon and his 2 and that one over there whats that. Thats in the green and behind it is a pike perch. Tell us why visitors to the region should come here to the museum. The other team is all about the Natural Environment in the region especially the flora and fauna of the mecklenburg Lake District. Are a lot of fish of course. Here you can learn about the ecology of the local lakes and rivers. There are many other plants and animals and if you come here 1st then youll know what youre looking at or what to look out for when youre out exploring. Its a different experience if youve been here 1st. Personally i found a huge school of white fish pretty impressive. Its my time to get into the water myself. So a little chilly at 20 degrees celsius look clean the water in the Lake District gets top marks for Water Quality but. This is the life. Im up early and its a lovely morning on the lake the wind is up and air is fresh. The waters pretty choppy on. The bridge. And as our cruise draws to a close im going to show off some of the skills i have learned here on lake me lutes people on shore or on the other boats really enjoy watching amateur skippers struggle to maneuver their old sit through the birth. Of. The last one when we should decide to move. For the last stop on check in special nicola foliage visits the island of that loser dome. Sunnys guides sandy beaches and ocean waves come on whos a doctor the 2nd biggest German Island in the baltic sea. Its a hugely popular holiday destination but why exactly. Why because you fall in love with those little good vibes good weather sunshine was what more could you want. Nice and nice people with the sunny island. Its true all the dumb as one of the funniest places in germany. Just. Like right now in midsummer too much sun can be dangerous so beach goers have found ingenious ways of keeping out of the sun. There was also a colorful sea of umbrellas and tests. The more traditional option as the wicker beach chair and. Vented on the baltic sea coast and 882. 00 its now an essential beach item. Getting in on the fun is super easy if you get a key and a number at one of the many rental spots along the beach and 5 your chair then set it up. And relax. In the waker beach chair is tightly interwoven with beach culture at the baltic and the north sea and rarely found outside of germany. Oh that is an island of superlatives it has germanys longest beach some 1900 hours of sunshine a year and super full especially the beaches are overrun by tourists what im wondering is are there any quiet spots left lets find out together on a tour around the island. Closer to home has an impressive 12 kilometer boardwalk that leads you past lots of greenery and beautiful buildings. Prominent is the most direct connection between the popular resorts of these hearings dolphin the odd bank and stretches out all the way to sri no she is in poland as part of german part polish the island is famous for its peers ill bet its actually home to germanys oldest and it was built in 1882. 00 after about a quarter of the way youll come upon a restaurant in which this is a great place to hide from the cold baltic winds but now in the summer its a lot nicer outside. From here its a Pleasant Walk to the end of the pier during high season excursion boats dock here and several times a day. All the places ive seen so far have been full of tourists now i want to have a look at. Quieter spots that means to they had to land here youll find forests meadows and links the island is separated from the mainland by the uk to have us on a look good formed by the river of pain the flowing into the baltic sea. Im treating myself to a truly special experience ill discover the area on horseback under those and im there are many riding stables chosen this one and. A group of locals have planned a tour and theyve invited me to join. This sid andriano my best buddy for today or at least i hope so before hitting the road we need to curry the horses. Saddled them. And put their bits in. Almost ready but safety 1st. Oh its been a long time what i do very like. Made it lets do this. First we need to cross town ive been in the saddle a couple of times already so i was able to join the tour right away but if youve never sat on a horse youll have to do a couple of practice rounds at the stables or let someone else take the reins. Him in any case this is a great way to discover danger. It really is true here in the back country there arent nearly as many tourists and as there were at the beach and then the resorts nature and beautiful scenery as far as the eye can see. But before i get too romantic we decide to speed it up a little at. Is that as far as ill go that time around. Ill leave the gallup to the pros but i do have to say this area is the perfect spot to go horseback riding we could even take a quick dip with the animals. In. My state here in whos a dom is almost over but theres still one thing on my to do list to finish up to the late 19th century fishing was the islanders livelihood i meant kozel where fish was made more enjoyable by coating it with salt food conservation kept the islands mostly more population from starving in winter to date the historic salt cuts are under a preservation order. And 991 the Family Restaurant called the was that sued to open its doors but here the fish insulted the smokers thats typical for it was a dump and the monster smokers defined i league is going to show me how its done. Me what i how do you prepare the fish for smoking does it have to be salted or otherwise biased or. First we cut it to. Get to draw it just like we have here in portland. How long do you leave it hanging its worth the need for at least 3 quarters of an hour just to draw it when smoking fish lets. Go smoking takes time. And think of. May which types of fish are particularly good when smoked for the year we have been summoned here and below. I know thats how you get so here. Once the fish is dry the oven is closed for about an hour. In case you were wondering why they call it the smoking. Time to get a taste and im going to try them all eels salmon and talib and. I wonder if these are the ones i smell but at this point who shares in the most important thing is theyre all delicious. But filling life at the beach and tranquility in the back country good food and plenty to do offers all the ingredients you need for a perfect Summer Holiday i for one had a great time i hope you get to see you next time somewhere and germany.
