Happy to be Back Home

We did sleep till 12 pm for our first day in the Philippines. It's understandable because we arrived close to midnight. The first thing that we did was filling our stomach for brunch at Flavours of China together with my eldest daughter & grandkids.

Floh Markt in Offenburg

A flea market or flohmarkt is a type of bazaar where inexpensive or secondhand goods are sold or bartered. The flea market vendors may range from a family that is renting a table for the first time to sell a few unwanted household items to a commercial operation including a large variety of used merchandise.



Last saturday, there's a small flea market in Offenburg Markplatz. The weather was very nice and its really good for vendors, rare finders and antique collectors.



Now, its ice cream time!!!

Adelina's First Communion Party


Today, we did drive to Kork to attend the First communion party of Adelina, the beautiful daughter of Annalina and Diether. It's my first time to visit their place and i was amazed by the beauty of their house and the kid-friendly surroundings.




We started with coffee and cakes in the afternoon and for dinner, Annalina cooked the best beefsteak and Tinolang Manok i've ever tasted. While our men were busy talking, we're also busy watching pinoy films at TFC then karaoke later. It was really an enjoyable sunday.

Dinner at Lea's Place

It's my first time yesterday to drive to Zunsweier where the Englisch family lives. Lea invited us for dinner in which she cooked ginisang pusit (Saba) and relyenong bangus prepared by her friend in the Philippines. We enjoyed the food and the exchange of pleasantries while eating.
