Sunshine and a day by the Rhein...


Today was fantastic!!! The sun was out again...and the weather warmed up a little bit so I didn't need a jacket. I went for a brief run in the Hofgarten, then ventured out to a picnic by the Rhein with some other nannies plus Alex. Since we're all pretty broke...the picnic consisted of lots of chocolate things...but it didn't matter. We spent some time playing by the riverside and skipping rocks, enjoying the view of the city and the sunshine.

After the picnic, some of us split off to take a Rhein cruise, and I had coffee and cake with Marie, Adele and Alex. That followed by a MARVELOUS performance of Verdi's "Rigoletto" at the opera house with Heather! The production was pretty new-age, but the singing...oh lordy the singing was fantastic. Finally a production with solid and committed performers throughout the whole piece! And musically tantalizing!!!

Here's my video for today:
