December Days in Germany
Last week I was in Germany for a few days. Checked into a nice hotel in a small city where nothing much is happening. Enough stuff to read, some videos to watch in my room where I also installed the basic equipment to prepare fine espresso. Listening to podcasts I hiked the (mostly quiet, rainy) streets. The shopping street had a small Xmas market where people could drink Glühwein and other alcoholics and eat snacks like spicy mushrooms fried in butter. gas station cake Espresso gear set up old town view Xmas market drinks Fried mushrooms, garlic sauce, bun Hairdresser telling folks NOT to sit there Thinking of buying a home here?
