After an interesting morning in Homburg, we wanted to see the next solar park, not too far away on the former U.S. Air Base Sembach. We were able to find it, but more difficult and basically impossible to find was a good spot for a photo. Solar parks look the best from a higher point of view but in this case there wasn’t any. At this moment we realized that it would be insane to drive hundreds of kilometers to any of those other 7 solar parks, always risking bad weather or a location which can’t be reached or photographed. We had always planned to stop in solar town Freiburg on our way, so that became our new direction but since it was too much driving for the rest of the day, we decided to give the Rhineland-Palatinate region a quick visit first.

Unfortunately the weather wasn’t on our side. When we were actually standing on a ramp, allowing us to look down on the impressive amount of 50.000 solar panels, we only had a gray sky and were lucky it didn’t rain.
