My Muttertag lunch in Konstanz / Constance at Maximillians, the French deli/restaurant.
C'était délicieux :o)

A lovely day in Konstanz in the sunshine, and a visit to the 'beach'. 

Pebbles and paddling made us all very happy, albeit with rather cold toes! Jude had a go at skimming - not very successfully as the stones were the wrong shape!

And it was Verkaufsoffener Sonntag - Sunday shopping - in Konstanz too. Shops aren't usually open in Switzerland or Germany on Sundays so this was quite a treat.

A camel and a llama. Ein Kamel und ein Lama.
Don't ask why. They were just there in the middle of Konstanz.
Odd! Wie seltsam!

Today saw another Familie Stevens outing to Konstanz. Beautiful place, and always a pleasure to visit. The boys were thrilled with the toffee and a bag of Haribo they were given in Karstadt and I rather enjoyed the Milchkaffee.

Possibly the highlight of the day however was lunch in Maximillians.. Jude started talking about it on the train and I have to say that I was looking forward to it too.

This photo is Jude and his Weißwurst served with Bretzel and Senf. You can see how much he was looking forward to eating it. He started munching away and after a slice or two, he was given a lesson in how to eat a Weißwurst properly the Bavarian way by a gentleman sitting near us (we suspect that it was the owner!). Apparently you slice the Wurst down the middle and the scoop out the meat, leaving the skin. Suitably enlightened, Jude happily devoured his lunch. I also have to mention that my Gambas-Coco-Ginger were delicious as were John's Gambas mit Kräuter und Knoblauch and Isaac's Tagliatelle mit 4 Käsensauce.
