Ha ha! I loved your story, Julchen (and loved the news on dear Josh, too), about your stay with Wolfgang's cousin. I have been to stay with hosts whose idea of a welcoming place to stay does not match my own--the worst was a house with lots of dog fleas, to whose bites I am very allergic; I had burning patches of itches for weeks--but it's hard to complain if the hosts are gracious and hospitable (ours was). But I can well sympathize with your euphoria at getting back home.
