Woke up and had a very relaxed breakfast with Hella in the guest room. We called a taxi and went to the tallest building in the city. Kind of a rip-off! It cost 3 Euros to get into the building. You take an elevator up to the 20th floor and walk out onto a platform to view the city. When you have to pee, good luck! No toilet in the place and the elevator will only stop on the 1st and 20th floors. The view was pretty nice and so was the weather, but the toilet thing was too much. As Hella said, Well, I don't ever have to do that again! We hoofed it over to another building and only had to pay 1 Euro for the toilet!
Things got better after that - we went to lunch in an old ship - below decks. It was very nice. Very full too. So they gave us what must have been the captain's private dining area. Good food, too!
Once we got back to Hella's she helped me figure out what I was doing wrong with my knitting project. She's an expert knitter. The winter hat I have worn for years was made by her without the aid of a pattern!
We sat out in the garden - a courtyard space of the building she lives in. Watched her cat who looks alot like Suki and we just plain relaxed!
The 3 of us talked a lot about her new apartment in a senior living complex she is moving to in July. She is experiencing some of the same issues the CHAT group is looking into for EcoVillagers as we age.
