5/13

I was in the cafe today. There were a couple of times where it rained so hard, you drop what you are doing and walk to the nearest exit or window and just watch the wash. Today is Jona's birthday so Henriette made some lovely cupcakes. Louisa made a cake for him last night but we ate it all within a few hours of its departure from the oven. OOPS!

We were waiting for Jona to call us to go up the his place, so we killed time with wine and a board game. You would think I would have the upper hand in a game such as this when playing and English language game against two Germans. No such advantage present. If all Germans at the table played within the confines of the English language and the perameters of the game board, I would have dominated.

We got the call from Jona and walked the 200 meters up an unlit, unsealed, mountain road with a cupcake and a half enjoyed bottle of wine as a celebretory gesture.
