Ulzburg Süd

Our journey from Cologne yesterday was the longest and last of our stages with (rather too much!) luggage.

So this morning we were happy to take things easy. I enjoyed the sound of birdsong rather than the EEE AWW of sirens. Instead of looking out the window to see grinding traffic , every window showed green lawns, trees in their spring foliage, mauve rhododendrons, foxgloves, and flame-coloured azaleas.

After meal planning we walked through this pretty garden suburb to the local EDEKA supermarket. This was large, pleasant and well-stocked, with a café where we enjoyed lunch.
The girls would enjoy the mini-car kiddy trolleys ( see the photo).

We also chuckled at the variety of “Don’t Let Your Dog Poo On My Lawn “ notices (one attached).

A thunderstorm was forecast for the early afternoon. Luckily for us it held off until after we got home.

We are booked for Miniatur Wonderland tonight. Report on this in the morning!Meer informatie
