tropical Germany

10 minutes ago the sky was blue and the sun was shining...
now it is thundering and raining torrentially,
looks like it's night and we can barely see the building in front of us...



said the american coleague:
- this really looks like hurricane season!

Aschaffenburg

today, between periods of sun and torrential rain (hurray for summer),
we decided to go for a day trip to Aschaffenburg...



by car it took us some 30 to 40 minutes to arrive
after lunch, we went to the Schloss Johannisburg by the Main
we went by the river shore to the Pompejanum and came back to the centre
we went "shopping" (or we actually took shelter from the torrential rain)
visited the Stiftsbasilika and afterwards went to the Schöntal Park,
before we came back home, under another nice batch of rain!!



it's a nice trip for a day (of real summer?)
