We had a pretty long drive ahead of us, since we had planned a two-day trip with an overnight stay at a friend's place so we could fit in more locations.
The first spot was an abandoned recreation home on an island in Eastern Germany.
I had only seen it on Google Earth, but hadn't found any photos that indicated the status of decay, so we had to check it out for ourselves.
Upon our arrival, we could already see that the state of most of the buildings was desolate. Roofs and walls collapsed, wood partly burned...in combination with the bleak weather, it was a sad sight.
Nonetheless, we decided to give it a shot, grabbed our gear and walked onto the premises. No fence or signs were there to indicate a restricted area.
It became apparent that our initial perception was correct. Years of weather and vandalism have taken a huge toll on the facility - but we still managed to get a couple of acceptable shots together, so that our visit here hadn't been a complete failure. Looking back, it was a nice start for the tour and a good one to warm up on.
