Wopswede, Germany - Deepak Mashinder and Abha visit




Wopswede is a lovely little town near Bremen in Germany - I. Mashinder and Abha visited it and spent the entire day walking around it - savoring the flavor of the times and Abha bought lots of beautiful little souveniers from the quaint little old times shops there. It was a really very happy and satisfying day and reminded me of the good old days when things were beautiful and life was simple and uncomplicated. Good friends are really a gift from the Gods.

BREMEN - ABHA MASHINDER DEEPAK - JULY 2011

Mashinder dove us in his car to Bremen - and on the way we enjoyed the impeccable German landscape - precision is the word that comes to mind when one thinks of Germany and we arrived at Bremen in good spirits. It is really a very fine city! We roamed all around the town area and savored the wonderful architecture of the buildings. many many wonderful statues, beautiful gardens and flowers, fascinating bylanes of old Bremen where there were quaint shops -each different from the next and each selling its own brand of goods. The cobble stones and the bicycle tracks were so nice to see. And the discipline amazing. No one - I repeat - No one every violated a traffic rule even though we seldom saw the traffic police!

A short update of our Europe Trip


We landed at Frankfurt on the 4th of July, were met at the Airport by my old friend Mrinal - and over the next couple of weeks we have seen a lot of Frankfurt, Been to Paris, Zurich, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Venice, Rottemburg, and so many other places including a wonderful Medevial Town, The Neuswanstien Castle with the incredible Mrinal - and will write in detail and post photos and descriptions of all the places by and by
We then came by train to Bremmen via Hanover and are now at my great mad friend Kundi's place in Hepstedt, North Germany. Mashinder is in a heaven built by himself here - I think that I will have to post a separate blog about his incredible house itself.
Today we drove with Mashinder and his very very wonderful wife Rumi to Hamburg, We walked around the beautiful city centre area, ate a great lunch at his favourite Chinese restraunt there and then took a City tour on the open top of a bus which showed us all the major attractions of this city of over 2 million people. The architecture is incredible and warrants a very detailed report which shall follow. Mashinder just booked rooms in a hotel and we shall be driving around 450 KM tomorrow to Amsterdam, Holland for a couple of days with him..
We hope all of our family and  friends are well and shining and happy and healthy
Adieu
Deepak and Abha
