Maria’s Beer Balcony in Germany

This get-together happened on a short-notice visit in July.  In the early afternoon, I found out that Jinsuk was in town, and he first checked  with me to make sure I was still around – take that any which way you like 🙂 .

The last time we had seen each other was in 2009. In the photo below, this was the first time with him as an adult, and so we were able to add beer to our conversation.

My husband’s former college buddy, Mike from Towson, MD, has come to visit us. We are in the middle of a drought, and therefore really do not consume much beer. Ice water is in higher demand.

Tomorrow’s temperature in Frankfurt is supposed to go up to 39.4° C (105 F) in the land where only some big businesses have air-conditioning. Hospitals, schools, and private homes generally do not have A/C.

Our current guest, Lady, enjoys the beer balcony too. I suppose she experiences her own ‘dog days of summer’ during this current heat wave.

Lady, our charge for two weeks until tomorrow. We will miss her.

My friend Martina, whom I had met here in Oberursel at a Halloween get-together about ten years ago, has moved away. But we do reunite about twice a year, and usually finish off our meeting-up on the beer balcony.

You don’t have to be crazy to be my friend. I’ll train you. 🙂

Yes, it is visiting season in Germany. Here I am with my best childhood friend from the small village of Hambach in northern Bavaria. She also reminded me that it had been her idea to post photos of all the beer balcony visitors on this blog.

We looked up the date of my first post on this topic – it was August 2013. This is post # 35.
