Wiesenbad

Yesterday (Sunday) we visted the spa town of Wiesenbad. It's an attractive place but, like the rest of Germany, pretty much still closed. We explored what we could: the cathedral, a spa, the old town which was best seen from the top of the ferris wheel. Apart from that we graviated between coffee shops keeping out of the cold.

I was hoping to see a regiment of hungry Germans emerge from their homes this morning in quest of fresh supplies. There has been no bread, milk, fruit, vegies or meat for 4 days. But things are still quiet down there on Schwantaler Strasse.

Jim has taken Mads to the pool and this afternoon we plan to hit the shops for bargains.
Tomorrow, maybe Cologne where I should be able to get some Eau de.
