Visitor from Space

My SSP05 friend, Liliana came to Saarland for a visit this weekend, and left here today a few pounds heavier, laden with Christmas shopping, and memories of Nutella-and-kirsch crepes, Zimt-kuchen (cinnamon cookies) and Thai curry from my favourite Bambus Restaurant.

While she was here, she became my Test Subject #1 for the launch of the new experimental bed. Preliminary evidence indicates that the air mattress/slatted frame combo merits a "comfy" rating. There is a potential hazard for sleeping in, though ;-)
Liliana departed this afternoon for her home in Brandenburg, where I will plan a pilgrimage in January to experience the delights of that region.
