Dear Professor,
I greet you on your summer holiday and wish for you in the coming weeks as much rest and pleasant impressions as you need, according to your last letter. The same good wishes apply also to your sister-in-law. Your wife has, I hope, arrived in Salzburg in good shape and is on the road to complete recovery. We in Berlin are having such a cool summer that we do not strive to leave the city as much as usual. And besides, we live a very idyllic life in our garden city, in the woodlands so to speak, with a large veranda, garden, etc. That makes staying here much easier. At the same time, for 31/4 years we have had only what will go into suitcases for a journey. Our things are still in store, packed away so that we cannot get to them until we move into our final home. After more than three years of life à la chambre-garnie we long for home comforts more than for new temporary arrangements. Recently we travelled the short distance to Bremen to show my mother the children, whom she had not seen during our three years in East Prussia.
