Krems, Day 3

[wiseheart]

Today was the day of epic climbings - being a town with a medieval core, Krems has been built on a hill, or perhaps on several hills, I'm not really sure. Mum was very tough about it, actually tougher tha I expected. But we were fairly done in in the end, do we decided to have lunch in a local eatery and return to our hotel early.

Lunch was a bombastic affair, though. We had Marillenknödel, that is apricot rolls with apricot compot. This us the Wachau, after all, a true apricot region. The things were delicious, but came in fist-sized dimensions, so that we could barely stand up afterwards. The Austrians clearly don't believe in small portions. ;))

Now we are resting a bit, as we still have three days to master, and neither of us is getting any younger. But it was a great day nonetheless.

Oh man, sounds like an exhausting day! I hope you had fun anyway. Lunch certainly sounds delicious.

Everything is exhausting at our age, but we're having fun nonetheless. And yeah, lunch was delicious.

Sounds like things are going very well. Will apricot jam be among the presents that you bring home?

[wiseheart.livejournal.com]

No, you can get apricot jam at home. I'm seriously considering apricot liquour, though. ;))

Ah, yes. That sounds much nicer!

Indeed. I never knew one could make so many sorts of spirits from a single fruit.
