Germany

Had a lovely day with my cousin Gabi today.It was specially nice as her son Dominik, a doctor in Berlin was there too as was her brother Joachim and his wife Ellen who picked us up from the station. Went down to my aunt's grave and for a walk around the village. The grape harvest is in full swing and the grapes look lovely hanging on the vines. Ellen made a lovely chocolate and hazelnut cake which I will make again some time too. My aunt used to bake it too. Staying in a hotel in Worms nearby and will be meeting my friend Ilse here tomorrow. Being very restrained with my shopping and will do some only at the very end to save carting heavy baggage around.
