The next day we woke up in Rudi's beautiful garden.
We went for a paddle in the Rhine.
It was even warm enough for a swim.
We had a picnic on the beach.
By the time we got back to the boathouse I was exhausted.
Rudi carved this Indian to guard the boathouse.
Rudi had a BBQ. Stephen's friend Ulla came.
There were rabbits in the field behind the house but we were not sure they'd come out in the photo.
We had a singalong.
The next day we had a walk around some gardens at a palace near Mannheim.
Lion.
A persian folley.
A Roman folley.
Rudi took us for a climb up a mountain overlooking the Rhine valley.
There was a fantastic blackberry wine villa at the summit.
There was a country palace.
Swan.
We went to visit some of Rudi's friends from the BBQ who ran the church in the neighbouring village. On the right of the alter was a medieval catholic relic.
We got to climb the bell tower and look out across the village.
We got to hear the fantastic organ.
