Friday morning Anna, their daughter, joined us for late breakfast. Lots of catching up of course! Then Eva arrived. It was lovely to see her and catch up on her news. She’s recently bought a house with husband to be(wedding to be in late April) as well as a new car. She’s excited about all that is happening in her life and was looking forward to having all day Saturday with her friends as a special time before her wedding. Anna has been doing lots for these celebrations 🥳🎉 of course.
After Eva left Anna drove us across to Baden Baden in her 4 wheel drive Audi, very nice car! After a coffee and a lava cake we wandered around and then went to the Modern Art Museum. By the way, the lava cake has rich dark melted chocolate which runs out when the small warm cake is opened. So tasty! There were crocuses, small hyacinths, a few snowdrops and some flowering trees along the park areas.Here is Christine in front of one of the very ancient trees!
We were going to see a painting that has become famous because the artist shredded the bottom part of his painting just after it had been sold for 1milion dollars! Apparently he had built the shredder into the lower part of the frame and used a remote to operate the shredder! How 😜 crazy. Anyway the painting, Love is in the Bin by Banksy, is still on show with the top part with girl and balloon and shredded part hanging down from frame.
We headed over to the restaurant for dinner which is i;the centre of the Mardi Gras type celebrations in the city. We ate early and really enjoyed
it all, once more. Great food has been a big part of this trip!
Fortunately we weren’t too late as Anna had to drive through thick fog for about 40mins as we came across a road which went up to 1,000m high. It was okay below 700m fortunately, but not an easy drive for her. There was just a little light rain part of the way too.
Now on Saturday, we’re relaxing and catching up on things. We all slept 😴 late and it’s overcast but no longer raining. Tomorrow we’ll go to church and Anna and her boyfriend will come over to visit.
