Chimney Sweep

Yes, he was wearing a hat just like this.

Today I saw a Schornsteinfeger. In fact, I held the door for him. It's supposed to be good luck if you see one. Not bad considering the fact that I was just coming back from the market where the fish guy charged me a Euro less than normal for the same meal.

I actually saw another one in Würzburg last June while visiting with my mom and grandma (someday I will share recaps, I promise). In general, I feel like one of the luckiest gals in the world, but a little extra luck never hurts.

Also, you should check out this page of Schornsteingefer images. It was really tough to choose just one.
