Yesterday we had 6 lovely different train rides to get to our friends in SW Germany. We were somewhat worried that we might get on the wrong train but, thankfully we didn't experience that. Today, we walked with our friends to a the marketplace of their town and saw many interesting stores and buildings. We also have been able to play with their children and get some pseudo grandparent-time. That was true at our friends in Belgium too. All of the children in these families were part of our Ft. Drum Chapel congregation.
Germany is lovely and spring is here with lots of flowers, new leaves and brilliant colors. This part of Germany has low rolling hills and looks like NY or Wisconsin. Many of the homes have solar panels over the entire roofs. Our friend told us that nuclear power is phasing out so renewable power is being phased in over a broad base. We have started our 4th week of this trip so soon it will be time to head home.
