Lindau, Germany

Lindau Germany.  Wed.  June 4.
Situated on a huge lake that is named Bodensee, this place reminds us much of the village where we lived in 1969.  We would like to stay at least a week, but we will leave here on Friday as our itinerary demands.  We had to cross the lake on a small ferry to reach our destination.  We have a sweet apartment that is clean and modern and we like the little deck included in the living space.  Farmland encompasses the village and cattle low in the fields that are not taken with orchards and vineyards and other plants like strawberries, and such.
Seems the same theme, doesn't it?  I could decide to live here in a minute if my loved ones were not so far away.  Flowers abound everywhere and people take pride in their yards and dwellings.
We drove into "town" for some supplies and food this morning. We purchased fresh baked brochen (another name for Kaiser roll), fresh bratwurst and salad makings.  It was the BEST!  We have not had bratwurst like this since we lived here..........seriously.  Boy! did we like our dinner today!
The Swiss Alps border the horizon of the west side of the lake.  One can still see a bit of snow on the top peaks.  I read where the Kaiser once had a place here......................glad he is gone.  People bike and walk much.  We hope to rent bikes tomorrow to see how much we can see with a little ride.
Even though we woke to warm sun this morning, by early afternoon we had plenty of rain.  We played cribbage and Dan took care of his photo collection.  We must have good weather to get out tomorrow and see more of this place.  If you have a moment, look on a map and find a blue spot between Switzerland and Germany.  That is where we are.  Smack over the border.
