Germany again

Hi all

Matthias and I are in Germany again. I am typing on Anja's German keyboard and it is going slowly. Y and Z are flipping and all of the special characters are in different places.

We've mainly spent the weekend visiting with Matthias' mom and Oma, oh yeah, and the dog. We played Fluxx (in German) with Matthias' mom and despite the language disadvantage I won 3 times. We've had some wonderful home cooked meals also. We both woke up in the middle of the night last night (which is 9 am USA time) and decided to take advantage of being in the country to check out the northern sky. There is so little light pollution it was easy to see the Milky Way and make out tons of constellations.

Today we went into Flensburg and walked around, had lunch at the "most northern brewery in Germany" the Hansens Breurei, and then went to Glücksburg Castle for the afternoon.

Tomorrow we're catching the train from Flensburg to Copenhagen. We'll spend basically 2 days there before we get on the cruise.
