Passion for Shopping

Everytime we're in the city, we always sit at our favorite Italian restaurant and ordered hot waffle with vanilla ice cream for me and apple strudel for Lucy. Though our food preference are different, we shared some things in common.

Pictures of Interests

The owner of this car woke up one morning to find his car totally kaputt. It was parked outside the house and somebody smashed on it in the middle of the night. The other silver car was damaged as well and its good that the driver who hit the cars showed up the next day.


My children and grandkids very proud displaying their "I Love Germany T-Shirts"

A Rainy Sunday

It's supposed to be the peak of summer here in Germany but its always raining and very cold. The global warming is taking its toll anywhere in the world. Anyway, we have a very delicious lunch and dessert at Hotel Traube today.



In the afternoon, another Thomas, our future neighbor at Southforbes visited us at home. He's on the way to Switzerland for a business trip and dropped by to have talks with Dirk regarding his house project.

The Shoppers

Lucy and me have two things in common, we love browsing around the city and eating our favorite snacks at Palazzo. We shopped at Karstadt and bought an Ipanema rubber slipper. Upon reaching home, i tried again the slipper and found out that it has different sizes. I'm going to return it tomorrow, its good that i was able to keep the receipt. We also saw some friends while browsing around the city.

Message to the World

The V sign is a hand gesture in which the first and second fingers are raised and parted, while the thumb and remaining fingers are clenched. The sign was widely used by peace movements in the early years and also as a symbol of victory for peace and truth.


Peace is something that many people in the world wish for, yet there are many places in our world where there is no peace. In our own way, my family and friends wanted to convey the message of peace to everyone around the world.

Like mother, like son

Every year, we never fail to join the Nussbach sunflower festival. Though the program is always the same every year, what is important is the bonding time that i shared with Dirk, the love of my life.


There are some stores selling handmade products



The live music and kids rides


The people

The foods


And meet Baltazar, the hairy dog
