Picturesque Greetsiel, Germany

Our first real stop in Germany, after crossing the Dutch border, was Greetsiel. Of course, we'd stopped briefly in Freepsum and Pewsum, but the absolute pouring rain put a damper on any enthusiasm we might have mustered to see more of those little villages. I was looking forward to visiting Greetsiel, and the gods played along; the torrential rain turned to drizzle and then stopped completely. In this postcard the streets and restaurants are empty as the rain had just stopped minutes before.
