Dear Friends and Family,

This is just a quick diary to record our village's annual "Dorffest".  Mostly, just some pictures.

The volunteer fire station is the center of the village activities, and of the festival.

This year there was also a juggling school.

After five years of going to the Great Annual Pommersfelden Village Festival, we actually felt at home (even though we STILL don't understand the local dialect!)
