Kate spent an hour on the phone to her mother! Yikes. Anyway, we finally managed to get out and wander around town. Saw the monument to Lord Brunswick - very fancy. He'd left the town a whole heap of money to give him a good monument, so they did. Nice gardens as well. Saw the biggest water-thing we're likely to see. It used to be a safety valve for the industrial area around the lake, but now runs all the time in summer. It has 7 tonnes of water in the air at any instant! Walked along the river and just looked at buildings. We watched Minority Report (subtitled in German and French) in a cinema that had plenty of leg room, though the break for smokers in the middle still happened. I was feeling a bit sick afterwards, so we walked straight back (stopping briefly to see a giant floral clock). |
