First Meals

 It's only the second day and we've already had a wide variety of meals and fellowship.  After unpacking a bit we found a Turkish doener restaurant a block from our house.  Delish!

Ruthild and her housemate Puran invited us for an Iranian lunch.  They live in our bldg on the second floor.  Puran is an excellent cook and told us of the persecution of her Bahai people in Iran.  She credits Trump for "support" against the Muslim leaders.  Ruthild told us many interesting stories from her past and her travels.  She has attended 12 Mennonite World Conferences!

We travelled with Greg's family to Backnang (two trains - including five minutes of relaxed conversation on the wrong train! But with fast running we caught the right train at the last minute!)
Rudiger picked us up at the train station and brought us home for a lovely German supper. In the picture you see his wife Karin beside Jack, Rudiger, Ines, Jennifer and son Alex.  Greg was with baby Ian.
