just laying around and doing nothing !
But after my first cup of coffee I thought that this plan would be a lost day and as Ilona was in the same situation, she asked me to come over for a cup of tea. Now Ilona doesn't live in Waterloo, but around 15 km from here, very easy a nice big road always straight and usually it takes me 20 min to get there.
As usual I took the Chaussee, and about 2 km from her home, the Chaussee was closed because of works ! There was no way to get to her house. I turned and found myself on this beautiful road with colored trees. Before Madame GPS told me to perform a U turn, I stopped and took this picture;
As it was useless to perform a U-turn I continued and she bravely directed me towards Ilona's address.

Only suddenly I found myself on a very small street for only one car in the middle of the country side. I was angry with my Madame, but then realized that as usual when she says to turn right I had turned left ! Instead of a lot of cars and their drivers I had cows starring into my car. They all arrived they probably thought I would bring them some food.
After a few turn left, turn right, perform a U-turn I finally arrived at Ilona's half an hour later ! Not so bad. She laughed her head off when I told her my adventure. Fortunately my car didn't get stuck at the cow field !
She had prepared her little garden for the winter and I found this blooming cabbage in the cat so cute.
She had lit a fire and we had our tea and a very nice afternoon.
On Sunday it was even worse ! Fortunately we were invited by Monique who wanted to celebrate her grandson's victory over three surgeries, he had an appendix surgery with quite some complications.
We had this beautiful cake, which tasted delicious

and after that a bottle of champagne and chatted the whole afternoon not about men ... but about our pets !!
Time flies by in good company !
