The
morning after our Rhine River Expedition was uneventful. Taking Nicole’s cue to
eat breakfast in the beautiful rose garden next to where we parked on the
Rhine, we enjoyed the tranquility and only wished we’d made a banner to hang on
the dock saying KD LINES DON’T CARE so that when our "friends" pulled in at 9 AM
they’d see it as well as all the people waiting to get on the boat.
When we got to Roos and Henri’s house at about 3:30 PM they were still at work but when Henri returned he gave us a full tour of the CSI van he drove home. We were fascinated by all the paraphernalia he has to use for crime scene investigation.
Goodbye, old plastic bowls! (left bowl from Thai soup package Grandmother sent, middle and right from Cesky Krumlov camp food of lentils with sausage, yum!!) |
Since Charles wanted to follow the Rhine to above Bonn
(which used to be the capitol of West Germany), we all got ready to do some navigating
by following the blue squiggly line instead of taking our GPS’s verbal commands
for the fastest way back to Roos and Henri’s.
While getting a little lost in a small town we asked a kind
woman if she knew where we could get wurst. She sent us to Imbiss where we had four kinds of wurst with curry, gravy, cheese and mushroom and onions, plus really good french
fries. Delicious! We all agreed, as we stood at the outdoor table, that it was
the best wurst experience we’d ever had.
When we got to Roos and Henri’s house at about 3:30 PM they were still at work but when Henri returned he gave us a full tour of the CSI van he drove home. We were fascinated by all the paraphernalia he has to use for crime scene investigation.
Roos made a wonderful canned peach with sautéed chicken and
cashews over rice dinner plus vegies made in the wok. After dinner Roos and
Henri translated the children’s book Dian had purchased in Germany and we all
had a good laugh.
