Once Ju and Mi (as they like to abbreviate themselves) were here, we had a great time&#8211;Imke had made a delicious meal with a soup and several salads and a casserole that I like especially well, which includes bread, tomatoes and cauliflower. We went for a nice walk after this late lunch (even though it was almost a little too hot for a walk and we deliberately picked a shady route through the nearby forest to the lake), and when we came back, Imke&#8217;s old friends, Wolfgang and Maya, had arrived. They&#8217;d come to congratulate Judith and Michael and to see us at least this once before we leave again, and we all had coffee and Imke&#8217;s fabulous dessert together. Another friend and neighbor, Elisabeth (who, like Wolfgang and Maya, has been a family friend since the mid-1970s) joined us as well. Ju and Mi took off around 5, with many hours of driving still ahead, while we had a pleasant evening with a modest dinner and a big thunderstorm system moving through, which cooled things off rather pleasantly, although a couple of hours south of here, caused major damage last night&#8211;thousands of trees were uprooted and blocked train tracks and roads, and 6 deaths have been confirmed, all caused by falling trees!<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had a lovely slow start to the day, with breakfast around 9 and some catching up on work and on uploading photos for Judith and Michael, who came to spend part of the day here around noon, after a weekend camping trip, while Imke was watching their cat, who is very funny&#8211;he is normally &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/2014\/06\/09\/monday-june-9\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Monday, June 9&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1760","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-2014germany"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1760","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1760"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1760\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1761,"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1760\/revisions\/1761"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1760"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1760"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zjunk.net\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1760"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
