visit to Alex

Today David and I were invited to Alex' place in the very south of Bavaria, Germany, about one hour away from my home. Lena was also invited but could not come. Too bad, because Alex still had this little gift that she gave him at our Christmas meeting. Anyway, we had lots of coffee and cake and juice and so. And also a lot of fun. Alex' collection is very nice as one can see, lots of goodies. David crawled right into some of them.
This was a very pleasing afternoon. Thank you Alex.
