This is fascinating. Yesterday was Loving Day, celebrating the Supreme Court victory in 1967 that struck down anti-miscegenation laws across the US. I wasn’t aware that seven states also included Asians in their laws. Thankfully Indiana was not one of them (though it’s not like the state was especially progressive; they had the law preventing blacks and whites from marrying until ‘67). I have even more respect for my amazing grandparents, and for my Korean grandmother moving to a country where her marriage wasn’t legally recognised everywhere. ❤️ #LovingDay
Current view. ⛵️🏔
King Ludwig II of Bavaria died 135 years ago *today*, so we decided to visit his island palace at Herrenchiemsee. He wanted his own version of Versailles, and it was truly amazing. (Unfortunately no photos allowed inside, but it was like Baroque and Rococo fever dream!) We rode a stream train, toured the lake, and saw stunning landscapes. 🚂🛥🌳🏰☀️
I take this guy to a Turkish restaurant for a change, and he still orders SPARGEL! 😂 #spargelzeit
