Hotel life is not much fun, when food is limited to a tiny beer fridge (after a 6 pack of beer takes priority)
Indian Uber eats x 2 last night…as first one didn’t arrive for 1.5 hours and ETA was 40 minutes – we reordered from another outlet. First one arrived and devoured ( just) when second one turned up. I guess it’s Indian again tonight. Hope George’s tummy will cope!
We are yearning for a home cooked meal! Meat and three veg!
Today was more relaxed, Russ is now dealing with a sore back again… so George and I went in search of supplies.
Lineament, arnica and a back pillow. A little event in the TEDI ($2 shop), when I was digging in a bin for the cloud pillow. The dog beds on top, burst out and dominoed a 5 foot high stack of plastic containers. A little mess to clean up, but its times like these that we appreciate not understanding German! Anyway, we left with our blue cloud back pillow for Russ.
Finally a canine! Waiting patiently in the front of the $2 shop for its owner.
Time for supermarket visit, to ensure we have Sunday supplies tomorrow (with everything closed).
Warm sunny morning and the “Blumen” (flower stalls) all open and selling bright summer flowers. Being in the vicinity of the hospital these line our local streets.
Laden with our purchases, we returned back to Russ, and he decided it was time to get the back moving.
A few laps of the car park, then time for an afternoon read and rest! I think even a small doze.
As Russ has not needed the oxygen since Wednesday, we had arranged to drop back the tanks to the boy we rented from on Sunday (his house), but I decided while I had George still with me we would do this today, a 5k walk there and back. Job done, and Bryan Spiewach (pronounced – spy whack) invited us in to his 20 something bachelor pad; guitars, washing baskets, skateboard, photo wall of all his adventures…he was pretty cool and very friendly (number 2 helpful German)
I have been trying to find beauty in this city, and in our walk spotted these painted hubcaps on a school fence….at least it’s colour bordering the overgrown berm.
George leaves us tomorrow and back to Norway, to start his new job and life. At least I have Russ with me now (to talk to in English) while we ponder our next move! Gotta let this back rest for a few days, his breathing has been really good!
So now I make space in my tiny fridge and enjoy my first beer of the evening!
