Beautiful kimonos!

Was trying to figure the language. The last word made me think - Japanese.

My wife just wore a dress she found here in Germany, not a Kimono. I don't even know if kimonons are made in her size!

You'd think I'd recognize Japanese when I see it, but only the -masu registered.

Without the last word, I might have thought it was anything from Finnish to Swahili.

As a "something new" we decided to take the tram into downtown Düsseldorf and try out a Lebanese restaurant that we had never been to.

It was just wonderful, with great décor as well. A nice change of pace from our usual pick of the traditional places we go to. It was in the Old Town (Altstadt) of Düsseldorf, about a two minute walk from the Rhein banks.

Baba Ghanoush anyone?

From the "Libanon" this past afternoon:
