The United Kingdom & Föhr

This morning, we visited the Dr. Carl Häberlin Friesen Museum in Wyk. There was a small reception and one woman was wearing a Friesen tracht. She posed with Stacy and MaryAnn for a picture. The museum was very interesting, and the English audio guide was particularly helpful. After the museum, we walked into Wyk and did some shopping while the kids played on the beach. In the afternoon, we visited the Föhr golf course. Frank and Natalie met us along with Theo and Dorit, and we all enjoyed drinks and visiting on the patio. For dinner we all met at J&MA's for pizza dinner and more lively conversation.Read more

We met everyone in Goting this morning and set off for a walk on the Watt (mud flats). The weather was beautiful - bright sunshine and very little wind. We walked away from the shoreline until the tide began to come in, and then we returned. You could see the tide steadily advancing toward the shore the entire way back. After the walk, we all went to lunch at a café on the Nieblum strand called Watts Up Föhr! There was fish and chips, pulled beef sandwiches, beer, and even apfelkuchen. Delicious! After lunch, we all had a bit of time to ourselves. Stacy and I went to Wyk to visit Monika's shop and to look for a Christmas ornament to remember our time on Föhr.Read more
