day in the next town

 Got out of bed despite having gone to bed early this morning. Got up and made a bit of breakfast and dressed and drank coffee somehow all at once. Washed and combed the white hair, out of curiosity checked the top of the head for a bald spot. It is not there yet, not in the least.

That is lucky.

Take the camera and the raincoat and walk down to the bus in the rain. It is ten in the morning, the bus drives to the station and then discover that the train is ten minutes late. That is not really  a problem. The train to Regensburg is moderately filled. On the way the brother telephones, and reassure him that all is well his brother is under way. His hotel is a short distance from the railway station. When he is there have a chat with him and a talk of one thing and another with his wife. After a while her son and grandson appear.

Got for a longer walk around Regensburg with the brother and his dog. He has a plan to show our  deceased mothers work in his gardening centre next year. Warn him that he is arranging a very tight schedule.

By chance meet up with the rest of his family on a walk about the town. They take the dog, and walk on to a cinema with the brother. He checks the films, and then go for a small meal.

It was dark when the two brothers arrived at the railway station. Returned to Landshut, and realised that the last regular bus had left at eight. The night bus would arrive in an hour.

Walked home in twenty minutes, and lay down for another twenty minutes.

Now all is done.

Perhaps a glass of beer in the pub would be in order.
