We left Rock Hall this morning for St. Michaels. Our original plan was to go through Kent Narrows. Until we realized we are too TALL! Instead, we had to go back around and under the Bay Bridge. That would have been a 5hour detour- putting us in St. Michael’s at 10pm. The only marina between …
13 June 2020 – Slightly disappointed she left her hammock at home, M decided to sleep on the net and under she stars last night. She’s not sure which was louder- the clinging of masts or the sounds of flushing water! this morning, after running through the check list with the Dream Yacht Charters, we …
Friday, 12 June 2020 – We had planned to be on the Summit at Sea this coming week. Unfortunately because of Covid, our seven days on a Celebrity Cruise ship to the Carribbean got canceled. But that can’t stop us!Tonight we are staying aboard the sailing vessel I’m Gone. And tomorrow, we will start a …
We realized on our way to Prague on Friday that Rothenburg ob der Tauber is only 20 minutes off the Autobahn. We’ve always wanted to visit this medieval walled city but it’s always a bit of drive and not close to anything else we wanted to see. But not this time. We woke up, packed …
We were on the road by 9:45 Friday morning for our 6-hour drive to Prague. WOW! Our apartment is in the Josefov quarter (former Jewish ghetto), surrounded by Staré Město (Old Town), Praha 1. It’s perfect for our stay – loft, elevator, AC, balcony, plenty of space. There were some kinks in the process (communication and …
Hard to believe but today was the last day of school!! We brought the cookies this morning, celebrated with döner kebab for lunch, and then headed to Bad Wildbad to walk among the trees. The Baumwipfelpfad Schwarzwald is about 1.250m long (including the spiral ramp in the Turm). The walkway itself is up to 20m high …
After school, we headed to Tübingen. First, we met Lizzy and Steve for Eis and a quick walk about the Altstadt Fußgängerzone. We took a quick pic in front of the Rathaus in the Marktplatz because the last time we were here, it was under renovation so we couldn’t see it clearly. The big event …
Couldn’t do a big excursion this afternoon because Hubby actually had to do some work. So … errands! Edeka for cookie ingredients + the barber for a hair cut + Bolzplaz for soccer = Weil der Stadt. Started baking for the Abschlusscookies. A total of 4 dozen per class for A, D, and S. That’s …
We went swimming! DAS LEUZE Mineralbad in Stuttgart has 8 swimming pools filled with mineral water. There are also saunas and steam rooms but we didn’t try those. We started with the indoor 20°C naturbelassenes Mineralwasser (Mineral swimming pool), then the 20° and 24°C outdoor pools. That’s 68° and 75°F – BRR! There is also a …
FRIDAY The kids haben Heute Blau gemacht (played hookie from school) so we could leave early for Strasbourg. It was only a two-hour drive that took us to the région d’alsace-lorraine and the picturesque village of Strasbourg. Our loft is perfect – enough beds for each child to sleep separately, a complete – albeit small …
