My mother-in-law returned to Germany for the first time in 14 1/2 years! We showed her around where we live and went to visit relatives all over the country! (Good thing Germany is relatively small..however, it still made for quite a lot of train riding :) )
Here are some highlights from the State Garden Show (Landesgartenschau) in Eutin, Schleswig-Holstein.
 |
| The decorations at the beginning were bee-themed. How about a bee-see-saw? |
 |
| Flowers! (+ swiss chard?? well, it is pretty...) |
 |
| Recycling as plant containers |
 |
| Strange + unusual things all over the place -- knitted watering can cozies, wooden motorcycles, ginger roots as decoration, puff ball scarves + cool individualized blown glass (molded to fit their wooden holders) |
 |
| Our lovely Canadians :) |
 |
| Beautiful Linden Trees |
 |
| A multi-sided sundial at the castle + some very serious thorns |
 |
| As we were at a castle, we needed some aristocratic photos ..in suglasses ..on a canon :) |
 |
| Gotcha! |
 |
| F's mom tried out all of the lying furniture..they got progressively better :D |
 |
| Greek yoga? Whatever :) |
 |
| What kind of bird is she trying to scare away? I'm pretty sure any crows would be shivering under the bed at this point... |
 |
| Bonsai! |
|
| oh look! someone's being silly! (I know, I know..that never happens.......) |
 |
| " 'SUP, dude" + "ta da!" |
 |
| Group photos! (Look closely--I really am in every one :) ) |
 |
| Ah, relaxing on a beautiful beach :) |
Life is good :)
p.s. I think I've pretty much gotten used to my bald or now very-short-haired reflection, but my shadow? That still surprises me :)

Looks like you had a great time! My favorite photo is the one of you floating in the air in the neoclassical rotunda. :)
Neoclassical all the way :)
