Bruchköbel

A most relaxing day with Dirk and Brigitte at their home in Bruchköbel. With the temperatures well over the mid-thirties we tended to bunker down all day. 

Blackcurrant jam was the main focus for part of the day. The blackcurrants came from the bushes at the pickings last year when we were camping together at Coucy le Chateau Auffrique in France.

Dirk and Brigitte had kept the black currants frozen for the past year, so, it was appropriate that we finished what we all started last year. The jam turned out perfectly and delicious - well done team. 

Later in the evening  the temperature has cooled enough to barbecue for the evening meal. Chatted to late in the evening and then off to bed.
