Day 2 – Monday – Breakfast in Fulda at Petra & Eberhard’s – Nov 27
th, 2017
Good morning sunshine, Kirsten is leaning over me as I wake up. Wow, what a great night sleep.
I pull myself together and make my down stairs Petra & Eberhard are busy in the kitchen cooking and it smells good. Gutten Morgan, Yah Yah would you like some Kaffee. Yah, Danka
I suck at German, but I give it my best. Kirsten and Omi come in just as I’m sitting down with my coffee. Yep, I have no idea what they are saying, LOL.
We have a fabulous breakfast and the car is packed and were off to Fulda. This is where Omi is from if you didn’t already know that. So, I’m in the back seat, Kirsten is driving and Omi is the navigator.
The Christmas market doesn’t open until 11 AM. We drove around town while Omi is reminiscing old time when she grew up in Fulda. It was fun hearing the stories.
Around 11 AM we park the car and start walking toward Fulda’s Christmas Market. Kirsten is so excited the first Christmas Market for 2017.
We find the Gluewine stand and order two cups. I hand one to Kirsten and I take the other. Omi, sips from Kirsten’s cup and says I make it better. LOL.
We wander through the market looking at all the items for sale. Each booth is decorated uniquely, each one is cuter than the next.
We find the bratwurst stand and I’m hungry. We get a couple of brats and find a cute hut to sit down and enjoy our meal. No sooner that I sit down Kirsten bolts off saying I’ll be right back.
Me, I have my face in my brat, hmmm good.
In a few minutes, Kirsten is back with a bowl of goulash soup. I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!
I just hope heaven is this good…
After lunch, we waddle back to the car. Omi has called one of her best friends Gudrun and we’re on our way to visit her.
Omi is navigating Kirsten to Gudrun’s house and sees a bakery. Pull over, Omi says and is out the door before the car comes to a stop. Omi, has a sweet tooth and runs in to satisfy it. She
returns and with a BIG box and it smells sweet. Kirsten ask what did you get Omi, a little something for us. Kirsten is smiling, she has that same sweet tooth.
While I was napping, Kirsten, Omi & Gudrun were visiting and working on getting us a room for tonight. They found us a nice Zimmer just outside of town.
After leaving Gudrun, we check into our room. We then jump back into the car and off we go to visit another cousin of Kirsten’s.
We visited Angelica, AnnKatrin and played with Soffie her new baby. She is cute and shy. After more cake, coffee and visiting; we were back into the car heading for Fulda’s Christmas market. This time at night to see all the lights.
WOW! It looks good during the day but at night it’s a winter wonderland. The market was lit up and people were enjoying gluewine and eating. We walked through market and were awed by how beautiful everything was. We stayed until it was closing down and then returned to our room.
I hadn’t eaten so Kirsten and I went down stairs and split a meal while Omi went
to bed.
Yeah, today was fun and furious, I’m tired, full and ready for my bed.
Good night
