A weekend full of jigsaw puzzles and fun (25th-27th August 2023)

 Usually I choose the Megamarathon to push away everything that's not related to jigsaw puzzles, but the past weekend was a very special one. No stress to assemble as many jigsaw puzzles as possible.

A close friend and her husband visited us - we know each other so many years and are both members in the german jigsaw forum. 

She completed the 2nd quarter of the Brueghel and began the 3rd, meanwhile I assembled many 500-pcs-puzzles as well as "Pixels"

I accompagnied her on a walk to find out about geocaching and we assembled many jigsaw puzzles as well.

 These are mine :-)
