Sunday, 2 July. Kirchheim Unter Teck

Spent most of the morning snoozing on the couch after the dramas of last night. When I finally did venture out I met a lady in the driveway with a vase of fake flowers. I made a comment about the flowers and she told me she now had nowhere to keep them after the fire. Turns out it was in the cellar and started from some sort of fault in a motor of some sort. Didn’t understand all the detail. We both agreed that it was good no one was hurt. There is a big pile of smelly rubbish in the driveway that the firemen pulled out of the cellar last night and the window they broke is right near my apartment.

I wandered into a different part of town and stopped for a cuppa and cake, my healthy lunch. Couldn’t eat it all which is most unlike me. Should have bought something at the supermarket yesterday when it was open. Sally sent a message about going to Lott and Alex for the afternoon and leftover food from the wedding. 

Went home and checked bus times etc then headed to the bus stop and caught the bus to Neidlingen. Sally met me at the bus stop and we walked up to the house where we had a very relaxed evening with the family. We said goodbye to Martine from Belgium, who heads home tomorrow. So does Laura.The Szubanskys kindly gave me a lift home again and I am now looking forward to an uninterrupted night’s sleep.

The only photo I took today because I wanted to work out how they made the layers go vertically.
