Shopping

Today we took the train to Essen to go shopping. Well, I shopped and Markus mostly stood around and watched.

The outside of this store is actually all plants, hard to see in the picture, but it's flowers and greens...

These slippers are felt and wool and totally adorable. Who wouldn't be happy to wear these around the house?

After a glass of Gluhwein, we took a ride on a giant ferris wheel set up in the center of the city. This is the local synagogue as seen from above. The ferris wheel was fast, and nearly missed a building and the trees. Markus said he was afraid, but I don't believe him.
