Dresden – Frank’s Mom

I was able to visit with Frank’s Mom, Tonka, in Dresden.  We met at a Canadian Steakhouse café that is near Frauenkirche (Church of our Mother).  Tonka is working with her company in the Dresden area to train workers and create documentation.  She is a delightful woman and I can see where Frank gets his personality and enthusiasm for life and work.  I look forward to seeing her on one of her return visits to the USA.

The restaurant was relatively close to the spot where the boat had docked (slip #17) and we had a nice walk before dinner on board.  As we were returning, we saw a few of the staff members walking towards Dresden to enjoy the town, a favorite of theirs. 

This is how the fork and knife are brought to the table
in a lot of cafes. I liked this!
