Jessica's New Friends in Dusseldorf

Tonight Jessica met her new friends, Dieter and Marie Therese.  Her first lesson of the trip was on finding a, hard to come by, parking space.

We went up to their "Flat" and enjoyed some excellent German coffee and various types of cakes....yummy!  Their home was built before the war and the area was spared as the bombings were further north.  They're beautiful old homes in a very historic area.


Jessica was delighted to hear some music from Dieter's Bango and Marie-Therese's Tuba.  Marie-Therese was very good at avoiding the camera.....haha






Thank you Dieter and Marie-Therese for a wonderful visit and thank you Yasmin and Heinrich for introducing us to these wonderful people!!

    Hi Brynn!
    I'm so happy to hear the fundraiser was a success! I wish you guys could be here with us this week. I sent you an e-mail with a little more detail to help prepare you for your stay. We met a family from the U.S today and it was very nice to have a family that could speak English. We are hoping to talk more on Thursday. Cheers!
