Langeoog. ..

Hello all..wanted to share with you all just one of the treasures we have here off of the coast of Ostfriesland. ..located on the North Sea...Langeoog is 1 from 7 Islands that are inhabited in this area..there are 4 more which are much smaller with no one living on them. Facts over this fabulous place..belongs to Landkreis Wittmund, is 19,67 km2, as of 2012 had a population of 1691, located 5 km from the mainland, and is located between the islands Baltrum and Spiekeroog.  You have 2 ways to get there..by ferry or small plane as they do have a small airstrip located on the Island..but once you get there you are taken to the main part by train..a very colorful train..you have to love the charm! There are no quote unquote autos on the island besides for sanitation and medical uses..for supply transport they use what I think of as large golf carts..typical way to get around you ask..bike or feet...how can you not appreciate this..decreased noise, decreased pollution. .a dream for a vacation spot. Small enough to get to everywhere super easy but large enough to be there for a period of time and not be bored. We only spent a day here..ferry runs morning and evening but have already promised ourselves that next summer we will spend a week with our feet in the sand and exploring.
