July 19th (sunny and warm)
Today, after breakfast, we drove with Georg’s Aunt Katie to Frankfurt to see his second cousin, Marta. Marta has come to Canada before and her husband Emil found us our first VW bus in 1972. Marta is 87 years old, seems in good health and still travels a lot. We had a little trouble finding her place because of a detour right in the middle of Frankfurt, but again, the AutoRoute program helped us out.
Visited, ate lunch and exchanged photos before the return trip of 2.5 hours to Mecklar. The drive was long, but it was lovely to be able to take Katie to see Marta and for us to see her as well. She sends her love and best wishes home to Canada.
Had more to eat – oh, have I mentioned that I am the heaviest I have ever been? Promise to go on a diet soon. Alfred and Anneliese want to come to Mexico next year, so will work on it for then.
