AKA: Huge amounts of glorious flowers EVERYWHERE!
Last Saturday we went to our first Frühlingsfest (which means Spring Festival) and my first Volksfest. I was in awe of all the flowers! Every other tent was full of fresh cut flowers by the bundle and beautifully arranged bouquets, for no more than 10EUR.
and other German (or not) happenings
All the Germans on post are very kind. Every last one wished us a happy Thanksgiving last week even though it’s not something they celebrate. My favorite was the man I spoke to to come fix our dryer! He said “haf a heppy… uhhhh… tanksgiffing? Ja.” Loved it! That’s why I think every German person who says their English is not so good, or they only speak a little bit, is full of it! Try hearing my German! I’m still trying to master “may I have” cause it’s full of all these forward facing vowels… ARG!”
