Gründau and surrounds

Back 'home' at my sister's place. Gründau is a village. When we get off the main road and drive down the hill you can see the whole village in one go. There are wonderful old towns in the surrounding area. Gelnhausen is one of them.

A friend who lives opposite Vera has the most amazing garden, full of saved treasures, artwork and bonsai. Every time I go there I see something new. It so reminds me of the way my garden was in Darwin.

Mespelsbrunn Castle lies between Frankfurt and Wurzburg. The whole area is full of walking and cycling paths.

Hanau is where the Brothers Grimm (of Grimm's Fairy tales) were born and where my sisters and I were raised. I have fond memories of going to the market on Saturdays. The empty flower bucket belongs to the gorgeous bunch of flowers we brought home.
