We have been enjoying changeable weather of late, currently it is humid and showery! Who knows what it will be tomorrow!
We've had a busy couple of weeks. I have been a little stressed thinking of all the things I have committed myself to. Yes, I know that's bad and I'm trying to change it. I try to factor a day at home in my week, but it hasn't been working out that way. I love to potter around the house (always have) and it's like a little bit of therapy I suppose. Obviously I worked myself up so much I got this awful neck/shoulder pain which hung around for 1 week. Roger was trying to encourage me to go to the Dr but I said "what will the Dr be able to do?"!! I am better now and will try and be a good girl, though next week isn't looking particularly good either, so I think I might have to forgo my Monday hike so that I can have a day at home! We'll see.
Had our first Nooma Night at one of the Starbucks in Basel on Tuesday night and it was great. It was a rather hot night so most people were sitting outside which left the 14 of us to use the space upstairs. We watched a pixal short video "For the Birds" then went around the group (2 groups - German speaking and English speaking conversation) answering set questions. The next evening will be on June 24.
Our friend Stefan from Church was there and he took us back to Loerrach afterwards. We all decided we would like some dinner so went to a little Italian Restaurant and had a light meal. We were able to sit outside and it was delightful. It's always good to catch up with Stefan and find out what he is up to. He is a young businessman in Loerrach, Germany with many good contacts and he has a real heart for what we are doing.
Roger and I have been catching up with many people one on one. This takes a lot of time and effort but we both enjoy doing it this way. Roger met with an NZ guy on Thursday and they plan to keep in touch.
Roger has the last of his Choir Concerts this Sunday afternoon in the open air in a beautiful place in Germany. Must make sure I take the camera to share it with you. A choir member is taking us in their car as it is difficult to get to. Here is a photo of last week's open air concert at Lange Erlen in Basel.
After this concert we enjoyed a light picnic dinner with choir friends on a late balmy Sunday afternoon.
