Freiberg, Titisee, and 10,000 kilometers















Sorry it's been so long since I have posted to the blog. Today, is the first day the Internet Cafe has been open. We arrived in Titisee on Saturday morning and found another apartment for a week. We are about 60 km from everything we want to see. Titisee is a crater lake in the Black Forsest of Germany. The first picture and the third picture are of the Black Forsest. Just beautiful here. Weather has been a little iffy. Rain everyday. On Sunday, we drove to Brubenbach where they were having a old car/tractor/motorcycle show. A local community thing. We had something to eat and listened to the oompa band (last picture)--kind of fun. Yesterday, it rained all day so we did nothing. We just got back to Titisee after riding the train to Freiberg. Another, large, busy city. Did a lot of walking and had lunch. This town was pretty much demolished during WWII, so there were not many old buildings.
We had such a good time at Corry and Henk's house. They took us on a tour of two local towns that are very old and quaint. We shopped and ate lunch--walked the beach of the North Sea. On Thursday night we took them out to dinner and had a great meal of the local fish. They have a lovely home and we really appreciated their hospitality.
Saturday we move on to somewhere near the border of Germany and Switzerland. Ken and Linda arrive on the 8th and we tour Switzerland with them for a week. Hard to believe that in 3 weeks from today we head back home. Yea!! We're ready!!!
