Taking it easy around Celle

The last couple of days have been very relaxing with Jo and her family. On Tuesday on the way back from Berlin, we stopped at the Krämer mega store, the biggest a tack shop I have ever been in, so I could look at full seat breeches. I walked away with two beautiful pairs of silicone grip breeches that I'm excited to try when I get home!

Wednesday, Jo and I woke up early to do a quick buddy workout, which consisted of a short run around the cemetery near her house, some walking lunges (the house didn't seem that far away when I suggested it but it seemed to take forever to reach our destination!), some squats in her driveway and some core stuff in the Livingroom. We then made pancakes for the family for breakfast, I napped and then we relaxed in the beautiful newly installed sauna they have in their basement. We had dinner at a great Greek restaurant and went to bed early.

Thursday we went for a nice drive to Soltau to do some outlet shopping. Sean is looking all swanky now in his new shoes and jacket! I bought a chocolate bar. That was the extent of my shopping. Chocolate is cheaper here! The breeches were all I wanted! We spent our last evening together relaxing before getting up early this morning to go to Glasgow with Jo for the weekend. We should get in to Glasgow early ish afternoon so we can check out a few things and get settled in for our Outlander tour tomorrow.

It has only been a couple hours but I already terribly miss Chris, Carol, Colja and Audrey. Staying at their place with them was so wonderful. It was an amazing experience to be with such loving and kind people. I also really appreciated not having to worry about the language barrier. There is a lot I take for granted when travelling with locals in a country where I don't speak the language!

Catching our connection from Hanover to Berlin after a 5:47 am train from Celle. Thankfully Chris bought us some delicious sandwiches on tasty German buns for the train ride!
