I recently had the pleasure of being invited to join the 120 year birthday party from the historical Henrichenburg ship lift in West Germany it was built in 1899 under Kaiser Wilhelm ll, this construction is a true testament to advanced technology for that time.The gigantic ship lift moved quickly and efficiently 14 meters up and down between the two levels of the canal. As a result goods like coal, ore and building materials could then be directly transported along the canal to the harbors on the North Sea. This technology required an incredible balancing feat a similar parallel to life’s challenges; shifting, lifting, redirecting, loading and unloading while at the same time maintaining balance.Stepping out of our comfort zone exploring the unknown helps some of us make a better assessment of our own lives and discover other processes like beliefs, cultures, religions, and history, some we may want to incorporate into our own lives, variety is the spice of life. Furthermore while I was at the party I tried a dish called flammkuchen it consist of ingredients very similar to American pizza, you select the toppings of your choice and the cook adds them to a thinner crust and a cream sauce. My toppings were mushroom, union and bacon. I felt like I was in a time machine and enjoyed the complete experience. Check out the short video below. Balance Due~ Makes a happy you.
