Meeting the locals

Pecking Order

Stephenie gave us a birdie feeder. We put it on the balcony but there was an initial reluctance to use it. But now, all inhibitions have disappeared and it's like a scene from 'The Birds'. Like most restaurants around here we have had to introduce a ruhetag (rest day).

This is one of the local bands entertaining the locals and tourists.  Quite a jolly event with the usual steady flow of beer. Only 11am so before the 'beering hour' for us.

Wouldn't like to give the impression that everyone wears traditional costume but this guy looks like he belongs around here.

We went on a walk with our neighbours downstairs which included lunch at the Annen Cafe. When we returned the party was still going on, only the band had changed.
