thanks for the beautiful "Osterspaziergang".

Luit,
the surprise - Mister Osterhase - must have been an artist and print worker!

Thank you Paul.
For me it's always a surprise to detect an egg in the woods - especially with a suggestion to visit a restaurant + cafe! ;)

Luit, unfortunately no Konditorei!
