Today Nadine went for a walk all alone for the first time since December. Well, not completely alone, but for about half an hour she was on her own. We both took a bus uphill early this morning and popped off at Birkenkopf from where she walked a route we were practicing together during the last few days.

While I went off for the run indicated below, Nadine took the almost straight way through the woods from the starting point to one of the small bends on the way back. So if something would have happened, I could have always picked her up on my way.

The whole thing turned out to be well calculated: Nadine reached the end of the course one minute earlier than me. From there, we were walking back home down the Hasenbergsteige towards our house and a decent breakfast. So we’ve got a proper setting now that’s crying for repetition!
