We
enjoyed he wine route so much Wednesday we decided to go back
Thursday. We started in Barr and found that it has lost much of it's
charm so we moved on to Ottrott which is very small yet nice. We
walked around for 30 minutes and ran into a couple on a hiking trip,
10 miles a day between cites on the wine route, their luggage being
transported between hotels. I'm storing this away for future
trips... The couple told us about a nice street market in Oberni (a
few miles down the road). So we headed out and arrived in time to
see it close. So we had to walk around town and I decided on a tart
linzer and coffee for lunch, what a great lunch! We spent an hour
plus walking around and then headed back to our hotel about 5pm to
get ready to see friends. Having been confused about the date, I
also miss-read the time and caused another panic. No problems, we
had an hour more to get ready than “planned”. We met our old
friends and found out that their daughter was born the day we moved
back from France to the US (11-July-1997). We had a great time, an
stayed past midnight, sang happy birthday and their daughter received
her presents. I am so blessed to have friends who will invite me
into their home after being away for 17 years. So after an all day rain, a few minute of sun the ride home was in a thunderstorm where it rained cats and dogs.
