Germany without the photos
Germany was wonderful, with all the good stereotypes coming true: vast and spectacular Swabian landscapes, and lots of excellent food — most notably spaetzle and pfeffinger mushrooms. Our wonderful hosts, Maike and Dirk, were wonderful, and we walked miles and miles and miles each day. My German improved from zero to as-good-as-zero, so I’ve got an awful lot of work to do before our next trip.
Now I’m sure you’d like to see some pretty pictures, and I’d certainly like to show you some. Well, I’ve not uploaded them yet. But more depressing (for me) is that my camera’s suspicously low-cost Bytestor 1GB SD card started showing its fault — again. And so half way through our week away I couldn’t take any more photos, so I’ve only got half the number I’d like to have. Now we’ll see how good Amazon’s returns department is. I’m off to dissuade other people from buying the same brand.
