Another warm & sunny weekend

Last weekend we had friends over from Holland. The four of them arrived Saturday at lunch time. Four means: John, Marianne, their son Quinten and their dog Sprinter. Sprinter was by the way our first sleep over dog ever and the girls loved it.

On Saturday we headed to Speyer where we walked the city and had an ice cream. We had a great day and enjoyed our first asparagus for dinner after the kids went to bed. Good times outside almost until noon.

Quinten really liked Hildes pink hat.

The day after we walked to Schwetzingen; the city we show every visitor. We had a lovely breakfast at the Gelateria and the kids enjoyed their time at the playground over there. Before we headed off for the Schlossgarten the kids got another ice cream. Before entering the garden there is already the little market place selling asparagus and strawberries. One of the sellers told me that the asparagus time will end by the end of June. So, lots more weeks to enjoy this special vegetables.
We walked the Schlossgarten for quite a while and went back home by the time the kids got tired. Quinten was about having his nap in the car and so they left quite early, something our kids didn´t like at all. Hilde was sad that Quinten was leaving and Lotte was again unemployed as they took Sprinter back to Holland, too. I think she was the only one who walked with Sprinter on his leash ….

This looks really yummie....

... and what about this?

See the lilac infront of the castle? (Yes, this is a lilac Kristin!)
