The clouds in Germany unlike any others: huge, swollen, white. Wolken in Berlin wie nirgendwo sonst: riesig, geschwollen, weiß…
My favorite aspect of Germany is cloud watching – I lose track of myself in traffic because I am staring at the sky. In summer, in winter, the storm clouds improbable, the sunsets lurid, and the depth and complexity of their topography. From the double windows of the Ebenböckhaus we watch the clouds all day and late into the pale blue-white night sky. The summer nights are still long…in the villa we are floating in space…
And today, this empyrean double rainbow over our dreamy Ebenböckhaus and magic candle nachtgarten. It arches over the orb of our candlelight.
