Lake Constance, Constance, Germany Day Trip
We attended a meeting in Constance, Germany on March 14, 2009. I actually wrote about it when I posted a video of the dancing stingray of SEA LIFE in Constance, Germany.
I did not really attend the meeting because I was not and am not even a member of the club. I just normally went with Hub every time the club had a meeting. It was always an opportunity to see other places so I always went with him.
While Hub was attending a meeting, I was out along Lake Constance busy taking pictures and enjoying the view of the lake. I only went back to the group when the meeting was finished.
