We had a busy busy weekend! Saturday we went to Schierstein Harbour Festival. I'm pretty sure that this is now my favorite fest, so far, in Germany. Before, my favorite was Wilhelmstrassen Fest, and while I still do love that one, I like how this one is on the river. It was a very large fest with numerous food stands and a ton of rides and games for kids, as well as a market. There were also dragon boat races on the water with plenty of seating to just sit and watch in the shade.
I managed to actually take pictures this weekend! (go me)
Sunday we went to see the Dalai Lama speak. Definitely a once in a lifetime kind of experience!
He was speaking in the park and there were thousands (maybe?) of people there. We got there quite early so we had fairly close seats but were in the sun the whole time.
He spoke in English and then a translator translated to German. The speech was great, all about peace and unity in the world. Very humbling.
I forgot to bring Elsie a hat.
That was our weekend! What did you do?
