Monday was the day after Pentecost and in Germany it is a holiday. Some people get together with family, some go out of town for a long weekend or take the whole week off (if they don’t have kids in school) and some just hang around the house like we did. After a late breakfast we got out for some exercise. John and Elisabeth headed out first, John running and Elisabeth on her bike. They wended their way through the neighborhood and then onto some trails to eventually end up at a playground at the edge of the woods. Henry and I took the direct route to the playground, he on his bike and me on my speedy feet (walking). As we went by the Lutheran church where Henry attends Kindergarten we saw a large group of people who seemed to be leaving the church. I assumed there was a Pentecost Monday service. We took a different route so we wouldn’t have to ride right through them, but encountered them again a few minutes further into the woods....
