An attempt to remap Europe and claim back the lost territories of the North Sea
Langlütjen – Eckwarderhörne
That winter, Tom’s mother was visiting. He thought she would be interested in Langlütjen and was determined to go again. My scepticism about this venture turned out to be misplaced.
Nordenham – Langlütjen
On one of the only days of sun we’d experienced that summer, we finally made use of a car-sharing scheme we had joined. Tom drove us to the Weser estuary at Nordenham.
Butjadingen
During one of the warmer weekends in early August, we took a day trip to the peninsula of Butjadingen, between the Jade and Weser estuaries. I’d been interested to go there for some time, as I was taken by the way it looks on maps, criss-crossed by thousands of small drainage canals.
