Sindelfingen


View Larger Map

We arrived in Stuttgart under cold blue skies, predictably bleary-eyed but having had a pleasant flight, under the circumstances. We were, until this evening, unaware that the subject of an attempted terrorist attack passed us in the sky soon after it left our port of first arrival, Amsterdam.

Anne and Aidan met us at the airport and drove us to their home in Sindelfingen. Sindelfingen is a small town on the outskirts of Stuttgart, where you can easily walk into the town square and follow meandering streets that display a mix of post-bombardment redevelopment and 16th century half-timbered homes and shops.

Tomorrow we go to France with Anne, Ken, Aidan and Gwyn, to take further advantage of the weather.
