July 8, 1990: England to Trier, West Germany



We had breakfast on the boat.  It was pretty funny as our dishes were rattling as we were docking the boat.   At 7 a.m, we got to the Netherlands.  We drove in the rain towards Belgium, then to our destination in Trier, West Germany.   On our way to Trier, we stopped for lunch at this religious community that had a famous Virgin Mary statue.  We got to Trier and stayed at a hotel, which was not too nice.   Mrs. Adams's room was across the hall from us.  We talked to her for a while which was nice.   We were scheduled to do a concert at Brunnenhoff Trier, but thought it may be cancelled because Argentina and West Germany were playing in the World Cup. This concert was our first one on our tour.   It was nestled in a beautiful place with a waterfall.  The public would definitely be at the World Cup.  We did do the concert, but only a few people attended.   West Germany won the game.  While we were packing up our stuff, we heard cars driving by and honking all night.
