The final countdown!
... more about that in a few weeks. For the moment, I'm most excited about the end of July when Thomas will finally come back to Germany. It's been almost a year that he went to Coventry, far too long time apart, if you ask me. It was good that he ...
Departure from Essen
Friday, 21.02.2003: Antonio is preparing sandwiches for the long jours in the car, Ela's selecting skiing gear from my parent's fundus, Daniel and I are loading the car and Miriam helps wherever she can. We're quite cramped in that car, but who cares ...
Weather forecast: cold and rainy
Hi everybody, after a few last weeks of sunshine and warmth, the weather in Europe is finally setting to "autumn" with rain coming from the West. Never mind, we will miss 2 weeks of that: tomorrow, Miriam and I will board our plane to Bangkok, where ...
Germany - Essen and Bochum
In February I decided to make a quick dash over the North Sea to see the guys in Essen. I flew with Jet2.com from Leeds/Bradford Airport for about 14 pounds and landed in Dusseldorf. We had a fun time, except all the Luckemeyers were sick. Lars was ...
Day -1, Essen, Germany
... I have used the last 10 days to prepare myself for the trip in the comfortable surroundings of the reknown town of Essen, Germany. Essential parts of the preparation process have been eating and sleeping. I am fully aware that by now, the receptive ...
Frankfurt Airport - Kuala Lumpur - Denpasar
After 6 months of planning and dreaming, our project is finally going live. Sunday morning, we'll get on our train to Frankfurt (FRA) airport. After a beer in the departure zone, Malaysian Airlines to KL, hopefully on an emergency exit seat - you ...
Back home!
... Ao Nang Group" which we highly recommend for their good organisation and friendlyness! That day, we shared our guide with a family from Germany who were living in Bangkok and had grandma and grandpa over for vacation. The two boys, aged maybe 6 and 8, ...
A little water never hurt anybody
... tonight on the big screen in the food court. That's what everybody else is watching while I'm down here writing. I left when Germany started playing crappy. Our last bit of industrial culture was a gasometer in Oberhausen. I swear I'm not making that ...
Friends don't let friends drink starbucks
Unless, of course, you're in Germany and there isn't a Mokas Things you don't think would be weird but are: seeing little kids speaking German, hearing the TV station dub an Italian soccer player's voice in German. FYI-graffiti comes in English more ...
I'm on a roll
Wow! Two entries in one day! I'm impressed with myself even though this is just a little math problem. My dad has been bugging me to get this up. He thinks its pretty important. It is pretty interesting. Ok. So I have attached a picture of a gas station ...
Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!!!
... with 3 or 4 story houses. Some of these differences I've seen are probably a city vs small town thing instead of Germany vs USA. I'm sure NYC probably has a lot of densly packed places that look kind of like downtown Newton. Hasta luego ...
Here at Last!
... ) they confiscate them and put them in these exhibits. So don't try to sneak a stuffed crocodile baby in through customs. Back to Germany. We talked with Jo and Annette for a bit before Annette had to leave for work. I went to sleep soon after this and ...
A little bit of scenery
... this morning. Some of us were shocked to wake up to the sunrise at 4:30 in the morning after the sunset around 11. I guess Germany is a little farther north than Kansas is. The girls and Jo were already gone so we had a nice breakfast with Annette of ...
Last day in Germany
... Annette said this would be a good transition for us. I ordered (in English) Sri Lankan chicken curry at an Irish pub in Germany. Pretty cool, eh? I'm really sorry I neglected this, but we've been having such a good time I have a hard time pausing ...
Wish we could skirmish
... mine which is now used as an all round exhibition centre and restaurant area. We stumbled on to a football presentation of how Germany has influenced the sport from around the globe. Some interesting displays made for a good hour long visit and I even ...
Games, games, games
... you're a gamer. Essen is not much of a tourist destination on its own, and at the heart of the old industrial Ruhr region of Germany, visions of the US Rust Belt swam in my head and I really didn't expect much out of the place. I was pleasantly surprised, ...
Departure day
Tomorrow or soon i depart from Frankfurt Airpot, fly to Sao Paolo change the plane over there and get than to Lima. I´m already more than excited to get to peru finally. It was my dream since now almost a year and thanks to a friend and also some other ...
Day at the Fair
... better people to spend the day with. Once at his professors house I got a better sense for where we were headed, Germany! Essen, Germany, actually, was the location of a man and his obsession with the fair. Essen is located about 2 and a half ours ...
