Best decoration, worst restaurant staff
This pirate restaurant actually looks pretty nice. However, the crew wasn't interested in us and didn't wanted to serve us.

Our private boat in the bay of our lake. The sun is finally back and this harmonic picture hides what happened to me just a few hours ago: While swimming during rain in the lake, I was hit by an electric shock just the same moment as a lightning flash hit the ground pretty close! I got out of the water so quick afterwards you cannot imagine...
