Breakfast Fiasco, aka, Learn the Language, Judy!

9/27/12
We walked in the rain this morning to the train station, about 3 blocks away, to get a breakfast roll & coffee.  We also stopped in the grocery store along the way to get bottled water, because a bottle of Evian in our room costs 3.5 euros.  In the plaza in front of the grocery store, farmers & other vendors were setting up their stations for a big farmers' market.  Rain or shine, the market must go on.  From what I saw, it will be interesting to browse later.

So, to the point of the title---coming back to our room which requires we use a separate elevator from most other guests, we discovered by sort of reading a sign, that there's a free breakfast buffet for our floor!  So off we went to check it out, & it's terrific!  It has both American & German breakfast foods, yogurts, all kinds of breads, etc.  We went all that way in the rain for a pastry when we could have stayed in our hotel, traversed one floor up, & had a super good breakfast.  We did sit down for coffee & some more healthy choices anyway, but we're all set for the next 2 days.

Thanks to Kendra for telling me to look for the title field on this blog.  Now I can put titles on here!
