Last time there was a quite significant German-speaking population - they seem to have 'moved on', but there is a lot of Germanic stuff about the place... especially architecturally; here's the Hermann Monument... (it was indeed a sunny, if cold, day today...)
This would not be out of place in any German town or city! Wagner would have loved it...
Lovely audience and theatre...
We had school kids doing all the technical stuff tonight, and they were as good as any theatre people we have met on our travels this tour - excellent.
In the afternoon, our espresso luck ran out, as the wifi/espresso place closed the minute we walked into it at 3pm! Luckily a bookshop stepped into the breach, at least on the espresso front.
Through the magic of download, we listened to I'm Sorry, I Haven't a Clue in the car on the way to our next hotel (a hotel we stayed in right at the beginning of this US sojourn in the middle of October)...
In our near-the-end is our beginning to miscoin a phrase...
