Friday night 2nd December saw Ron & I drive to Zurich airport to pick up Jen. What a lovely meeting. Home for hot tomato soup and catch up.
Saturday was time to start sight seeing. Off we went to visit Radolfzell- a lively 1200 year old town on Lake Constance. Th attractive town centre was alive with the Christmas Markets. A Gluewein to start the day- but not quite to Jen's liking. No matter- her Opa & Wend enjoyed it well enough! But hot chestnuts straight off the coals- definitely a must. yummmmmmmmmmmm. Waffle not bad also. Lunch was eaten standing around a table munching a hot potato & cheese pizza bought from one of the Christmas stalls. We walked around the small harbour and viewed the Sculpture - Standing Wave "El Niño" on the shores.
After viewing many early century buildings we left and drove to Stein am Rhein- a town in the canton of Schaffhausen. Stein am Rhein has a well preserved medieval centre - with many medieval buildings painted with beautiful frescoes.
We walked around this lovely ancient town before heading home - late afternoon.
On arriving home we were invited to Mryta & Werner's for afternoon tea. Werner our 82 year old visitor to Perth before we left- decided Australia was enough for him and arrived back in Büsingen- safe thank goodness.
