Luckily we had planned to drive to Frankfurt for my aunt Ilona’s 70th birthday! It is so rare for us to be able to participate in a family event that Uli and I were happy to be part of this! My parents were able to join from Köln and in all we were 30 guests, family and friends. The food was delicious and the speakers were funny and creative. Ilona’s son Patrick prepared a slide show—photos from young age up to now, a whole life passing by. Ilona has been a part of my growing up also, a friend to confide in and get sensible advise when needed. Her house is often my first or last station in Germany when I visit.
