1. EU election day. What is generally expected in Germany? A minimum of 60-percent of adults (age 16 or older) will vote. If it goes past 70-percent.....it'll be a 'thrill'. Just for the record....you can only vote at your local town polling station, if you show up with your German national ID card.
2. More rain expected today in Bavaria. Flooding continuing. Weather guy spoke to Monday/Tuesday.....with MORE rain expected those days as well. In some locations, it's been an entire year of rainfall over the past ten days.
3. The Galeria-Kaufhof store in Mainz (like a Macys)....was on a closure list (by the end of 2024).
Well....someone sat down and noted that the store actually made a fair amount of profit, but the rent was eating up profits.
I will note, having been to the store a dozen-odd times....it's a five-star location.
So this past week....the company that owns the building came to grasp the situation....that they would end up with a empty building and no one capable of renting it....so they cut the rental price. The store changed it's plans, and will not be shutting down.
