Our flat

I promised to describe where we're staying while we're in Lübeck. We're renting a furnished flat from an old acquaintance of Gary's, who is giving us a special (otherwise we never could have afforded this trip). As I mentioned previously, the flat is upstairs from a goldsmith shop, and here is how it looks from the street. That's Gary, at our door with our bag of groceries and wine from Aldi. Our place is up a flight of stairs; the second-floor windows are the windows of our guest bedroom.

Inside, we have a large room that doubles as our living room and bedroom.

We also have an eat-in kitchen, complete with everything we need for cooking. Since this photo was taken, we've discovered a second-hand store and have added a tablecloth and place mats, and it's very gemütlich in here. 

In addition to these two rooms, we have a bathroom (with a tub/shower combination, washing machine, and clothesline), plus a guest Schlafzimmer that faces the street. We have internet, TV when the reception is good, and cozy hot water heat from radiators in each room. 

The only thing that would make us more glücklich is if we had friends or family here to share it with us!
