Everybody likes old cars
Ripley said that yesterday and it's true. It reminded me that I had some photos of a vintage car exhibition taken last week. There's a club in our village called Auto Passion and they meet every year at the main square, much to the delight of residents and tourists alike.

Dublin takes the family for a drive
GrannyJ sent us a video:
Just got this from my sister and it brought a smile to my face. I am kind of partial to it because it is the spitting image of Dublin- and the little one looks just like he did when I got him as a puppy. I could not resist.
[Make sure the sound is on.]
Thank you, GJ.

Weird album covers
A friend posted one of these covers on Facebook as a joke and it inspired me to look for a few more examples of extraordinary artwork on album covers. Not even classical music escaped!
This last one is rather good. I'm sure View would appreciate the visual groaner...

Billy in Munich
I can't remember if I've mentioned that our Billy moved to Munich with his German girlfriend. They moved about two months ago and are enjoying it.
They seem to be getting into all sorts of things and have done an 80km bike ride to raise funds for Unicef. Billy looked a little bit tired at the end of it:
They also enjoy their breakfast on their apartment's balcony. With so many trees around it, the sound of birds singing is a great start to the day.
Billy will start a German course tomorrow (trying to learn the language on his own was proving to be a challenge). He posted this video on Facebook to illustrate how different it is from other languages:
We hope to visit them in September. It should be interesting to compare Munich to Leipzig, which we visited in 2008. We spent Christmas with Sandra's family and can't remember eating so much in our lives! Sandra's mom is an accomplished cook, but she overdid it a bit. We had several meals each day and they were all enormous!
We can't wait to see both of them again. The last time they were here together was in 2012. Here they are, at the Soirée Européenne.
While we count the days until September, we'll practice some German.
Guten tag!
