September 25 - 2nd leisure day - Friday

This day started slowly too.  Greg pointed out that the resort's group hike we were considering was walking the same path we always walk when going to Oberstauffen.  Therefore, we decided to meet about noon to walk into town and have lunch.  Matt started with us, but decided it would be better if he stayed at the resort.  So the three of us went, We found that the gift shop we liked, closed every day from noon to 2:30.  Seemed some others did that too.  We found a candy shop/restaurant where we could have a lite lunch.  Angie and Greg had some goulash soup and split an unusual open face egg and pineapple sandwich.  I had sausage and chips, expecting potato chips.  What I got was french fries.  I was surprised, but it did taste good !.

Greg wanted to take a sandwich on the train in the evening, as it may be the only access to a meal before they get to the Stuttgart hotel at 9:30pm.  We remembered a deli shop we stopped at on Thursday.  The young man behind the counter spoke English very well, and he made up 3 ham and cheese sandwiches with mustard.  One was for Matt.  We all agreed we should have found that place earlier in the week.

Angie and Greg were leaving for the train about 4.  We went down to the lobby and shared a champagne with them, and bid them farewell.  And now there was just the 2 of us; Matt and Me.


Matt went to the laundry facility with me to get me started.  It was a challenge, because the settings on both the washers and driers were in German.  We had to guess which would be the setting we would normally use.  I managed, and the clothes survived !
