Lady and I set out on a walk this morning to enjoy the sun and check out our village. Today is definitely our warmest day yet- a beautiful time to be in Germany.
I like to walk in the woods or on the trails around our village. Today, I decided to walk closer to home- down the streets of our neighborhood.
I would love to have an established routine {story of my life, haha} and get those in our village to know and recognize us.
While they walk all winter regardless of the weather, I've been inside since about October- perhaps even September.
It's no secret- I don't do cold too well.
The day {last month} I took the picture of this lady with her walker it was about five {5} degrees F outside. Ice, cold or snow- they don't let it stop them. They are the real deal here and have earned my upmost respect.
Now, that the temperatures have risen, I think walking in their steps {literally} is perhaps the best way to meet my German neighbors- specifically my elderly German neighbors. I'm taking this approach especially considering I still haven't taken the German class that remains on my to-do list.
Today was a good start.
Our village is so peaceful- especially mid-morning. I received several Guten Morgens from several grandpas- something I now love to hear.
