Bächle make life more beautiful in hot summer seasons for kids and dogs, touristic guests and residents, for boats and exhibitions of art. Even for bicycles it seems.
They are allowed to be sweeped only by extraordinary-studied "Bächleputzer".
On the last day of carneval, in February, the active carnevalists wash their empty purses in it and cry loud. Because carneval is over and purse is empty. Until it starts again the following year on 11th of November, 11.11 a.m. (on 11.11. at 11.11).
And as the Pope visited Freiburg an aqua-papa-mobile was offered.
If you drive your car into a Bächle it will make your stay into an expensive one, I guess. So, for the case you decide to visit the city, take care of your wife and husband and of your car, too. Although it happened that our Bundeskanzler Schröder on his tour stepped into a Bächle and never married a Freiburg girl.
The Pope didn´t step in. Imagine! Nobody will love Freiburg again! If London has equal stories?
We have a free living crocodile - no fear - and a yearly duck race - no harm - as well. I´ll report to you next time.
