Ja, ich finde das wirklich wunderschön und interessant. Das ganze, darf sich einfach für mich nicht in die Länge ziehen, da ich nicht sehr lange sitzen kann. Ich interessiere mich sehr für alle diese wunderschönen Zusammenkünfte. Aber das gilt natürlich nur für meine Invalidität. Ganz herzlichen Dank für die tolle Information
