Vatertag recap

Yesterday was Father's Day in Germany.


We took a bike ride in the country...
  • Saw the goats, the one guy was climbing the wire fence and sticking his face through the opening, it was too funny. The other is giving him a look like show off! I have a feeling they are feed by many people passing by. They were practically begging from us. 
  • Fields are freshly plowed and had a Oh so stinky manure smell to it!
  • Fields of yellow flowers dandelions, they were really pretty. 
  • It was cold, I had one many layers, scarf and gloves. It's May right?
  • The random roadside Grill was open due to the holiday. We stopped had a Bratwurst and bier! 
  • It's hard to ride a bike after drinking a bier! 
  • Sophie"s boyfriend Eddie was hanging out at the Grill.....tried to deflower her once again....the girl has got a growl on her, she wanted none of that. 
  • Came home and watched our first German movie with English subtitles....Germans talk fast and I discovered I'm a slow reader. I loved the movie it is called "Rabbit without ears" or in German "Keinohrhasen".
  • It's was a great Vatertag! But I have a feeling come June 20th I might have to step up my game and actually cook a meal and possibly get a card.

Glad it was a super Father's DAy! I really like this new look to your blog--it's fresh and the pictures are gorgeous!

BTW--make sure when you get back to the USA, if you do come my way, we'll have to have a 'bier'. Besides, after being in Germany all this time, you'll not want to go back to that 'lite' stuff you guys call Beer in the USA. Ours in Canada is much closer to German brew!
