and if the room is a square, that’s okay, too. He might be spouting drivel but he is holding a glass of Pfälzer wine while he is pontificating on … well, drivel. And his friend approves.

I’m a Fan of the Wurstmarkt Brunnen
During the first two weeks in September, Bad Dürkheim in the Palatium puts on the largest winefest in the world, the Wurstmarkt (literally: sausage market). It’s not a new festival, it has been around since 1417 – in 2017 it was celebrated for the 600th time! In comparison, the first Oktoberfest in Munich was only in 1810.
Most visitors to the fest arrive by train or tram and the first thing they see when they arrive is the Wurstmarkt fountain.

Small droplets
collecting in puddles and bowls
flowing into streams
and rivers
into larger rivers
and finally finding their way into the sea
reaching from shore to shore.
