September visit

I can hear the yodeling in the background (can't you?)

Perhaps that's the cowbells clanging, the Alpine horns blasting.

Land of fairy tales and castles,
(what's that boot doing up there in the cloud? is Rapunzel's hair hanging down from the upper window? did you spot the little fellow ducking into the doorway? see the wood spirits' faces on the tree trunks?)

beer and wine and bratwurst.....

sitting together round the table, elbows locked, swaying to the music (singing along).......

rolling hills of forest interspersed with farmers' fields......

that's romantische Germany to me, home at the moment.

Time has passed and the girls have come and gone. I surely miss their laughter and energy! ~M
