Weekend Houses, the sequel

Thanks to an EDS colleague’s comment of a few days ago, a bit of trivia pertaining to these weekend houses I wrote about (blog post with pictures on Wednesday, October 12th). In his words…

“In German, these weekend houses are called "Schrebergarten"... which translates as allotment gardens and indeed, they seem to be common - not only in Germany but also in Switzerland. While it is easy to see why someone would want to be able to flee from their tiny apartments and do some gardening work, it is beyond my comprehension why anyone would enjoy one of those places by the road, railway, airport or highway.”

Thanks for that update….
