merkwürdig

TrachtWandering to work through Passau`s peaceful Sunday streets, I passed by an American woman bedecked in Tracht (the dirndl, lacy bits etc that make up Bavarian national dress) and explaining to a rapt cruise ship audience "well, not many people leave the church, because then nobody will bury you."

Musing on this, I rounded the corner to find it`s "take it bigger" day at my usual coffee shop (grande for the price of tall sizes, were you wondering). 

A friend of mine can raise one eyebrow without moving the other - if I could, I would.
