Today Martin leaves for his French immersion experience in Avignon. The day – and we do celebrate the mothers in our midst today and every day – started with going to a small church (a rural church with services every other Sunday, where Ingrid and Pete used to be caretakers and grave diggers) with Solveig playing the organ. Attendance was strong due to a baptism. While special chairs (mini-thrones, one could say) are always reserved for the local duke’s family at the back of the church, they did not make an appearance that day. Back at home, and after a group effort changing a flat on the Imsdahl van, it was time for cinnamon rolls and brunch, served outside on the porch. Later Ingrid and Lisa dropped Martin off at the Lübeck airport and then treated themselves for Kaffee und Kuchen in Travemünde before picking up Pete at the train station – he spent the weekend teaching a couple of GMAT preparation courses in Frankfurt.
