Walt Grace Vintage – Cars & Guitars is a huge warehouse in Wynwood that we just visited to kill time before lunch [Zak the Baker: see below!]. We couldn’t believe the expansive collection of guitars and equipment; my brother Anton would just want to move in because of the guitars and my brother Jürgen would take all the cars. Win-Win!

And there it happened: I fell in love with Harold (sorry Ted!). Harold was just so handsome, colorful and bright; perfectly in shape, he was what I always wanted! And there he was, waiting for me!!!

I just had to have him, right there, right now! And the sales clerk tuned him for me, explained a few things and we decided to give my newly acclaimed Ukelele his name: Harold! I love Harold and as soon as we got back, I restrung him into a left-handed Ukelele and practiced my first song, „You are my sunshine“! Ted, who is a good sport about Harold, is still around, neither Harold nor my music scared him away!

Zak the Baker is a very interesting, innovative Bakery that has delicious food and a great following. So great, that you have to wait an hour to get a table – it’s totally worth the wait!

The chocolate almond cookie afterwards didn’t want to wait for a Kodak moment – it just disappeared in no time!

One funny thing happened at Zak the Baker: as mentioned above, the place is incredibly busy and so is the hostess, signing in hundreds of people a day. When we were about to leave after lunch, she walked inside to the back of the building and said: „good-bye, Edith“. A few minutes later she came back and I said: „wow, you must have a very good memory for names“, but she just shrugged it off: „not always; some people I just remember“
