Crazy Animals

Our time in Schifferstadt is coming to a close. It was a great time with cousin Judith and her husband Eugen. Eugen made us some fabulous German meals, we enjoyed his 60th birthday party and we had fun in Heidelberg. Yesterday Mike and I got a day alone together at the spa in Baden Baden. We were pampered in the traditional Roman spa with massages, floating in pools of various temperatures and the best part....being wrapped up in warm blankets for a little sleep at the end!!! Today we visit the Stuttgart zoo and saw some creatures we'd never seen - the Tapir, the Okapi and the cutest little octopus! It was a sunny day but still cold for October in Germany. We ended the day having dinner with Julia (Jennifer's exchange student from a few years ago) in a perfect little German Gasthaus. The food was fabulous - Mike said the best meal yet.
