MAGICAL TREES

dear diary-reader,
as you know gravity is not a friend of the bike tourer when she's not doing her best to pull us to the painful ground at inconvenient times,‭ ‬she sees fit to keep us from ever reaching‭ „‬the top of the hill‭“‬.‭ ‬This mythical place is always right round the bend or just a little bit further.
It is with these heavy thoughts that we were confronted with Lithuania's rolling countryside.‭ ‬A series of hilly roads stretched before us like the many arched back of a great serpent reaching from hell.‭ ‬On,‭ ‬and on,‭ ‬and on,‭ ‬we went to Moletai for some fine Svyturys beer which eased the pain and set our appetite up for the local dumplings called‭ „‬koldunai‭“‬,‭ ‬tasty indeed‭!
From there we met Andrius,‭ ‬who brought us on a trip around the Labanoras national park.‭ ‬This trip,‭ ‬and the resulting cycle to the sleeping place shall not be commented upon this writer‭! ‬This is because a,‭ ‬they won't let me write bad words and b,‭ ‬I'm trying to forget it for sanity's sake.‭ ‬I'm sure somebody more forgiving will fill in the details but basically we saw a tree or to then played russian-roulette‭ ‬-cycle.‭ ‬It wasn't all bad,‭ ‬-‭ ‬when we eventually arrived at a biketour recrd breaking hour,‭ ‬a big pot of soup was made and an old biketour friend,‭ ‬Iarden,‭ ‬was waiting for us with baclava.‭ ‬Cheers mate‭!‬aited long in‭ ‬....‭ ‬and then we started a beautiful guided tour through the forest...‭ ‬sacred trees and lakes.‭
It was a very special place..‭ ‬riding between two lakes in the evening sun‭! ‬In reality they are one lake‭! ‬Andrew the guide told us magical stories about that place‭!
The horn-peninsula..‭ ‬where the witches dance in midsummer night.‭ ‬A very special pine-tree.‭ ‬I had the impression that I could feel the spirits..‭ ‬and this tree...sitting under it..‭ ‬gave me so much love and warm feelin..‭ ‬I wish to come back to tis place to have a women-dance-celebration.‭ ‬The energy of this place made me dance&sing..‭ ‬the beauty..‭ ‬the power..‭ ‬flowing..‭ ‬beeing..‭ ‬feeling my witch-power,‭ ‬my female crazy beeing‭!
„the spirit of the sun comes to me in the form of a beautiful dancin golden woman.
And her eyes fill me with peace.‭ ‬Her dance fills me with bliss.‭“
that's the song that fits perfect to this horn of witches..
‭„‬Ask the fishermen if you want to know mre about the magic that is happening at that place‭!“
WOLVES TREE.‭ ‬Our ride is going on to the nxt magical tree!if you want to get a child‭ & ‬it does not work you can pass through the tree‭!
(I was dreamingabout children the night after.‭ ‬I hope that did not work for me‭)
Feelingthat tree gave me a lot of clarity.‭ ‬I came down from the crazy witch dancing..‭ ‬to a soft,‭ ‬clear,‭ ‬lovn mind.‭ ‬Maybe the tree is like an understanding mother‭ & ‬father.
HEALING OAK.
The third tree we visited was a‭ ‬300‭ ‬year old oak,‭ ‬that is supposed to take our illness.‭ ‬You touch it and you can give one illnsss you have to the oak.‭ ‬But if you touch twice you get aother illness back.
That tree was very strong.‭ ‬Respectful.‭ ‬Let's see if we could leae our illnesses there‭?
(riding‭) ‬cycling‭ ??? ‬in darkness on gravel‭ & ‬sand..‭ ‬new experience.‭ ‬Good night dinner‭! ‬Soup‭
