One of the elders at Christliches Zentrum is a baker, so this was his donation to the cause - he was a bit upset that the person who did it made the red stripes pink instead of red - oh well, it worked!

Hot Dogs are one of our 4th of July traditional foods. It occurred to me as I looked at the sausages how these foods originated in Germany and along with Hamburgers are a part of our culture. So it seemed appropriate to eat sausages and hot dogs in Germany on the 4th of July!

I've seen many strange things in my life, but seeing our American Flag flying high in Herrnhut, Germany was a bit strange! We had a fun time of putting on a play that probably made no sense to the others - it barely did to me! I was an Indian, as were many on our side. The guys were either Indians or cowboys - what we're typically thought of. The play was to help give a history lesson of why we celebrate the 4th of July.
We sang our national anthems - US, England and Canada! It was fun and just two days after my return from the US, so in some ways I felt like I was "back home". The building in the back is my bank...

Both flags - in Herrnhut, Germany!!

Here is our Canadian Cowboy Raymond! His wife is German. He was on the side of the English in our play, but his wife was dressed as an Indian!

Here is Frank our Pastor dressed up as an Englishman going before the court (in our play) before the King to protest what happened at the Boston Tea Party. Frank is German but lived in England for many years and his English sounds British. He did the job quite well and did the Queen proud! The room with the window above his head is my office..
