Visit to Germany, Part 1

How to summarize a three-week visit that was so packed full of wonderful memories that my head and my heart still haven't quite caught up with all I experienced?!

Well, let me just say, there was no time for jet lag when I first got there! My visit started out with my cousin's wedding, which was one of the most heartfelt ceremonies I've ever attended.

The weather was beautiful (quite warm, actually), and it was an all around wonderful day, saturated with happiness!

The very next day, my dad and I drove to the Pfalz for a couple of days, a beautiful area where we used to live and still have a few family friends. While I didn't get to see everyone (there never is enough time), I did get to visit with some friends very dear to us!

We thoroughly enjoyed beautiful views,

quaint old villages,

ruins and castles,

and the excellent wine of the region...

It certainly was a very meaningful trip down memory lane, made even more beautiful by the gorgeous summer weather, although I must say that for a couple of days it felt as hot as it does here in Savannah! Soon, though, the temperatures would become more moderate and even fall-like to my very great delight!!

Stay tuned...
