Description
[Translation/transcription]
Hamburg
Hotel Prem
28 September 1958
Dear Dr Hodin,
We aren't home yet and unfortunately we don't expect to be home before 10 October. OK has started a second landscape and it's very exciting - from the thirteenth floor he sees a wonderful inferno, but he's going to need more time.
The weather in Lübeck was splendid, here it's been changeable. Salzburg was, as usual, exhausting and ended with the flu. But a great success. Two hundred students to OK alone, too much. We're very much looking forward to getting home.
Kind regards and all my love to Pamela and the kids.
Yours,
Olda K.
Dearest Magister, please try to come with the beautyful one after the 10.X. to Villeneuve. I am longing to see you both as a reward because I have done much work (another Hamburg now).
Thanks for all the nice articles and letters and postcards.
My everlasting love to the Beautyful one and kindest thoughts for you.
Yours OK
