Lessons learned on this "adventure"?
- German restaurants close for the afternoon, if they're open at all during the day. Your options are to eat around Noon or find a bakery. (Though I knew this, I find myself just as surprised every time it happens!)
- Neunkirchen am Brand's Library has won some awards for their children's programs. Great! Having said that, it certainly has strange hours, namely:
Tuesday | 11.00-14.00 Uhr |
Thursday | 16.00-19.30 Uhr |
Friday | 15.00-17.00 Uhr |
Sunday | 9.00-11.00 Uhr |
Lucky for me, an afternoon with Lukas is never dull. He did some "karate" moves for the woman seated next to us at the bakery, and - in between bites of chocolate-banana - talked loudly about how he can speak four languages (he considers being able to count in Dutch and German mastery of the language). He never asked where his brother was (but at some point I volunteered that he was with Oma & Opa); I guess he was just happy to be out with just his Mama -- like the "old" days. Which got me to thinking about our many adventures together, and how great a little traveler Lukas has always been. It may not have been an extraordinary adventure, but we still ventured out, and - most importantly - we were on it together.
For those of you who can't head out and adventure right this moment, why not help build a village for those in need and secure your chance to win some great prizes? :) I'll be giving away a personalized tour of Nuremberg, Bamberg, or Munich to one lucky winner, and there are some other killer prizes up for grabs!
