WE BE TIRED

Today is Thursday, June 4th(I think). We are staying in a town outside of Dresden about 40 kilometers. We found a lovely apartment on a farm (doesn't smell!!!) and the people are very nice. Jim and I are tired and have decided to take a few days to just relax. We will be going to Dresden one day and hope to take the train into Prague, Czech Republic one day. The other 3 days will be just relaxing.

Things that I have discovered:
1. Fifi will tell us where information centers are in a town
2. Farms are clustered together to form a town--no farms along the country roads here and there like in the States.
3. White asparagus is big here.
4. No trash anywhere in the towns or along the roads. Super clean country

We had a rather frustrating drive here, yesterday. We were about 25 kilometers from our last place to stay and I realized I'd forgotten my watch, earrings, book, and hearing aids. I was worried about the book--Jim wanted me to get the hearing aids. Go figure. So, we turned around and went back--40 minute delay. And then Fifi got us all messed up. Yup. GPS is not perfect. She had us going South instead of North for about 40 kilometers the wrong way. Jim was not happy. We are here and glad to take it easy.

I think we're a little burned out, as well. We both miss a routine and Buddy. And, of course, our family and friends. Let's hope the next 6 weeks go as fast as the last!! We really have had a good time,but as Jim said, 3 months is a long time. Love to all of you.
