On April 26th we attended a tradition German celebration in the city of Holzgerlingen. The city is celebrating it's 1000th birthday....wow! One of Jeff's friends (who speaks very fluent German) told us about the celebration and offered to get tickets for a group of us. Holzgerlingen is a beautiful old city and just minutes from our village. Jeff and I were so excited for a night out together, we jumped at the opportunity.
The evening consisted of a 14 course German meal set in the beautiful Holzgerlingen Castle. We were part of a play, as the evening was an entire show. We were guests of the royal family and we had to behave as such. The food, wine and beer never stopped flowing as the entertainment kept us laughing. I was even part of the Magician's act later in the evening. Although the evening was all in German, Terry translated for our entire group. It was an amazing night and we loved experiencing such a traditional cultural event.
