der Bub - Robert Fleischhaker

Robert Fleischhaker This travelblog is about the places I have visited during my world trip in 2005/2006. Starting in Germany it covers many places in the Middle East, in Asia, in Australia, and in New Zealand. On the way back I visited some parts of South America, Central America and the US. In the end I go on board a container ship to get back to Europe. Have fun browsing...

Not too special but very peaceful. Just us and the pelicans.
Some really peaceful days in San Marcos my sister and me spent with hanging out at the beach, watching the pelicans dive for fish, and preparing prawn for another nice self-cooked dinner. It was like holiday during vacation. [View Full Entry]

My Sister and Me
My Sister and Me
After more than ten month we met again.
Getting finally there where I had promised my sister to come to, just around the back side of the earth, was overwhelming me with the fact that I had nearly accomplished this journey around the world. That I had come so far savely! It was time for a break before I started for the last part of the trip so I lived at my sister's for nearly a month. In a small language school I brushed up my spanish for some days. In between from time to time I watched the German National Soccer Team play at the world cup in [View Full Entry]

Stone of the Sun
Often said to be the calendar of the aztecs in the museum it sayst this is an unfinished altar stone. On the right a painted reconstruction.
On the way to my sisters home in Guadalajara I had a look at the famous sun stone in the antropological museum in Mexico City. After the visit of different maya sites the maya section in this museum was very nice and interesting for me. Many artefacts that have been found at the acheological sites have been brought here. So I finally got to see some of that things were I before had only read in the guide book or on an anoying sign that it has been removed to this and that museum. Very impresive was a huge painting about [View Full Entry]

An Early Start

 North America » Mexico » Chiapas » Palenque
Palenque
Palenque
Palacio at sunrise. You better appreciate this picture since I had no "special permit" to take it...
The best possibility for some pictures in gentle light are in the early moring hours. With the pleasing coolness of the night still present the ruins of Palenque would be more enjoyable than in the hot sun of noon. Thinking that I was at the entrance of the archeological site at six in the morning just to find out that some stupid regulation says you need a "special permit" to enter at this early time and the regular opening time is at eight o'clock. Not for you, my friend, I thought and vanished into the bushes... after about half an hour [View Full Entry]

Toad in the Jungle
Sneaking Around
Grave of King Pacal

The pictures from my visit to the famous maya site Tikal I have mainly colored in sepia. I think this represents best the mood I found the place in during the foggy days of the monsoon season. Imagine how the sun three hours after dawn just manages to burn away enough humidity from the night that some rays of light can touch the tree tops through the clouds. In the distance a group of howler monkeys can be heard traveling by. A startled Toucan swings away through the green. Wandering between the mighty roots of the jungle I dicover the mighty [View Full Entry]

Welling out from a crack right below me the lava forms a river in an ever-changing bed.
Quite a special excursion I did from Antigua was the visit to vulcano Pacaya. This is a popular one in general, it's easy to climb and the chance to see some vulcanic activity is good. But the latter greatly depends on the latest development. Because it had been recommended to me several time the few past weeks I decided to take a tour even for the rainy season and the bad weather. So the whole hiking part from the parking lot to the actual start of the last cone was through a misty and wet forest and not really fun. The [View Full Entry]
