Company outing 2019 Wetzlar
From Robin Hood to Ariel
Friday 13.09.2019
12:00 h: Departure in the direction of Wetzlar
14:00: Planned arrival in Wetzlar - PLANNED. While some park skillfully directly in front of the door of the archery and climbing forest, others long for a little walk before the big task and park accordingly further away.
14:30: After also the last car has arrived, it can start after "short" briefing. Mr. TeAm (Attention: Insider) leaves no attempt open to explain the rules and techniques of archery even to the last "non-listeners". After a short test run it goes on the hunt.
17:30: 25 stations later and plastic animals killed accordingly, most of us can call ourselves true Robin Hood level archery experts. The injuries and scars mark those who have taken their task more than seriously.
19:30: After the work is done, the reward awaits the heroes of the day in the form of a delicious evening meal with an extensive selection of intoxicating drinks. Extraordinary praise went to the kitchen. A great meal cooked with a lot of love.
02:30: Congratulations to the "Last-Man Standing" team.
Saturday 14/09/2019
09:30 hrs: Planned departure towards Lahn canoe tour - the same procedure as the day before - so again unfortunately only PLANNED.
10:30 a.m.: Still made it. The first teams are in place and the canoes are launched. 13km of hard work and obstacles on the Lahn are on the agenda. It remains to be seen which canoe will lead the fleet, who needs to cool down in the Lahn and what losses will be suffered.
11:00 a.m.: The first lock appears in the otherwise idyllic landscape of the Lahn. And here it's time to get out and lend a hand: Thanks to Johannes and Dirk for your efforts.
12:00 h: The second lock turns out to be a much bigger challenge. After Johannes and this time Andre show full physical effort in opening, closing and regulating the water, this lock sacrifices the first canoe. Simone and Frank save themselves and the boxes with the food supplies from the lock.
12:30: After the excitement of the first lock, the adrenaline levels do not get a break so quickly. At the exit for the first break Sebastian L. shows us how better not to do it and thus joins Simone and Frank as the swimmers of the day.
13:30: After an extensive break for all the laughing muscles, it's "ship ahoy" and departure again for the remaining 6.5 kilometres. The next one wants to support Simone, Frank and Sebastian L. in the team "Arielle" and, after a shaky exit when entering the canoe, lets himself float relaxed in the life jacket through the Lahn.
15:00: The flag canoe with Doro, Jasmin and Svenja enjoys the solitude, silence and beautiful surroundings far ahead of the others and reaches the finish after 4.5 hours. The best comes at the end: Sebastian M., as a muscular force, also reaches the finish with his fellow paddlers Jana and Cristina.
19:30: In the beer garden it means now recovery from the strains of the day with a tidy Verköstigung - thanks to waiter Toni for the great hospitality and the tasty recommendations.
03:10: The last participants heard their pillows calling.
MANY THANKS TO OUR BOSS FOR, ONCE AGAIN, A REALLY GREAT COMPANY TRIP.
