On Wed 13th April the Irish passport and card finally are delivered around midday. Exciting! In the evening we party with Guinness and rosé prosecco. Trude presents the largest chocolate Easter rabbit ever. Earlier in the afternoon we meet at…
Several days pass, odd folk fight in the kitchen, Lotti appears with Christina not Hans, so odd photos appear. Yesterday we shopped in Maria Hilfer Str, for a tablet, a pillow and an atrocious shirt in C&A. Today we have…

On Saturday Nashmarkt is visited by the royals. Despite the cold, we head through to the Flohmarkt. As nothing there we queue barge into Cafe Savoy. Very busy, but it is so pleasant that 2 hours rushes past very quickly.…

Testing the new fahrrad with a 26km Komoot loop. Great fun, lasted twice as long as the official time. The seat came loose and the rear wheel fell off. Otherwise all well. Komoot and the holder brilliant.

Free day spent in the souk, buying various goodies including spices, and visiting Le Jardin Secret. Dinner at La Collegiale, an outrageously expensive and overrated place. Larry has to leave at the start for the airport, and has to put…
Around 11am we leave the White Camel for lunch in a resto, followed by a tour round a museum (Palais Bahia).
