Frankfurt tomorrow!

Well, after one of the most enjoyable fun filled action packed vacation months ever, tomorrow we leave turkey and head to Germany.

Why Germany?

My son is in the air force and stationed there! I am so excited to see him (Marcos but we call him Marc), his wife and my granddaughter who turns 8 in September!

Land in Frankfurt but head to a tiny village called Dudeldorf (no "s").

Stay tuned for news and photos and don't be alarmed when you hear the screams of happiness!!

Hi Blanca and Les,

I wave to Dudeldorf :D. I've never heard of this place, even though I live approx. 3 hours away.

But we have already visited Baja California twice.

I hope to hear the scream of happiness soon :biggrin:.

Have a good time in Germany.

Hi Blanca and Les,

I hope you are doing well.

After heavy rain flash floods occured in the area. I can't remember when there were such masses of water as this year.

Usually we don't know such severe weather conditions in Germany, but this year everything is different.

Dudeldorf, a village of 1300 inhabitants. Among those 220 U.S. Citizens. How do you think to find your son???:light::light:

It doesn't sound good for Dudeldorf

A search for damage from this flood (specific to Dudeldorf) did not turn up a link for me, but it found one from 2018, so the town is prone to flooding!

I am great and apologize for not writing sooner! My son lives high up on a hill!! This village was affected since there are rivers flowing right thru town BUT they were prepared and not badly hit.

I am loving everything German!!!!!

Now I am glad that everything is ok and that you love Germany .:biggrin:.
