easter weekend

i wish the weather had been this nice all weekend, but all these photos were taken on monday. the rest of the weekend was very grey, cold and damp, but it meant we got to be very lazy at home without feeling too guilty!

we did start the weekend with a lovely meal out on friday night at flein (finally got to try it out! i've wanted to go there for ages). it's a lovely simple rustic place with friendly good service. i can't wait to go back in the summer and dine in the garden.

on sunday i tried to go for a run in preparation for the relay marathon this coming sunday (yep. it is now 3 days away and i've barely trained! EEK). but it wasn't very successful at all. in fact i think i ran about 5 minutes before i stopped in a huff. running is really not my thing. can someone please remind me of this next time someone tries to convince me to take part in a run?

on monday we took a slow stroll along the canal towards the city, walked through stadtpark to see the ducks that badger loves, and then on into the city (where i met a friend to see the iron lady at the cinema). a great long weekend with lots of malteser munching involved!

and now another weekend is almost here!
