When I entered our room, I found 41 Euro in the envelope on the bed on which only my name was written. As soon as I saw it, I understood it
was from Steiert, but there was no apology. I didn't miss the 41 Euro. Would one who misses 41 Euro come to Germany from Japan? I really wanted to be apologized to for the sudden cancellation. I think that the firm that never apologizes for its own fault shouldn't be trusted. What would they do in a case of a more serious accident?
We went out for dinner and headed for the Old City in accordance with my rule that you should have domestic or local dishes when you are out for a trip. We took seats in a restaurant near the Cathedral and ordered two kinds of domestic dishes
like the pictures. They were so delicious and went with Badisch wines. I shared the dishes with my daughter. This was the last dinner in Freiburg.
The last picture shows the sign saying the present condition of the air. It looked like we were in a clean environment.

I imagine the air is quite clean in Germany. Isn't there beautiful scenery everywhere, with big meadows, trees, and lots of other greens? That's my image of Germany.
I like your rule about eating local food. I think it's one of the best ways to explore a country!
By the way, I did a google search the other day about Thanksgiving in Japan or something (for my work, we are trying to figure out a way to celebrate 'thanks' with our young students), and anyway, your blog came up on the second page of listings for my search. I thought it was ironic that I came upon your blog in a random search on the internet. (sarah)
