Dommitzsch

Let me begin by raving on about a wonderful invention that I was put onto by my daughter, called an Apple ear tag. Now it’s not like the ones you clamped onto the calves ears to show they belonged to you , they’re more humane nowadays and can be worn around the neck. (Very handy for countries where multiple wives are permitted.)Anyway we thought that because we don’t have phones with data on, one would be very handy on Christine

It was bloody cold this morning with a head wind to boot. Unbeknown to me Christine had stopped to put on more clothes and it wasn’t long before I heard a loud beep from my pocket. I pulled out my phone and it said, YOU HAVE LEFT CHRISTINE BEHIND. Amazing eh ?(or not ! )
Pretty cool little set up on a truck
Every time I stop to photograph old machinery I hear a groan behind me “ not again “ But I see it as a picture of man’s evolution. Every piece is a slight improvement over the last ,thank goodness they don’t throw them out.
Webnig. Even the town pump. State of the art in 1900.
Torgau Castle. It’s huge !
The centre courtyard has a stage for concerts and in case you were thinking about sneaking in, the old moat is now a bear enclosure
It’s warmed up but the wind is making it hard work. We can see a storm brewing in front of us so we push it to get to Dommitzsch and our BnB before it breaks.
We’re there and not a minute too soon. As soon as we were inside it HAILED !
Ahhhh. This place is great. Fully equipped kitchen with a coffee machine and food , all ready for breakfast tomorrow
