Yesterday was the Tag der Deutschen Einheit, the holiday commemorating when East and West Germany were reunited in 1990. Hannover celebrated by... sleeping in. There was nothing going on here, so we tried making our own fun at Andrew and Katja's garden. Unfortunately, Andrew, Katja and baby Juno were home sick. So our friend John mowed the grass, I yanked out some dead zucchini plants, and Brian made the fire. We celebrated the only way we know how to celebrate a national holiday - with grilled meat and several beers.
Happy sort-of birthday to you Germany, in your latest political configuration. You're all right.
