In which we go a-leaf-peeping.

Went for a mucho lovely walk today along the Elbe east of Hamburg, through drizzle and German foliage galore. The hoped-for sunshine didn't quite make it through the clouds, but ah, well, optimism at least kept the heavy rain away. The turning point was the old, riverside town of Lauenburg, which is as quaint as it is prone to flooding (= very). Weather forecasts are calling for mixed precipitation and -- can it be? -- snow next week.
