Green christmas in the Black Forest
Deutsch siehe untenThis year we had decided with our family that we wanted a relaxed and fun christmas time without the usual hassle and stress. That is why we all met in a very nice hotel in the northern part of the black forest in Bad Teinach. We are not really used to staying in such a luxurious place but we have to admit that we quite enjoyed it. We that was my mum Petra and Manuel my g

eins zwei drei vier Dracula
We decided to take the motorway for the rest of France. It was a little a lot expensive but it took two hours off our time. Cruising across Eastern France listening to Blind Melon and Redgum was a nice way to spend a morning.Driving in the EU was a little odd. The only reason we knew that we39d crossed the border into Germany was that people started passing me doing better than 170 kmh
Welcome to Germany.
So christmas has come and past. I think I slept most of it. For dinner in my hotel room I had a Tombstone pizza and ate pineapple out of the container. The cleaning lady left a small cookie gift bag in my room when she cleaned. It was the only gift I receive this year but it was worth it. It occured to me that was the price for coming to Germany. I could have stayed in the states longer. I could
4 Hours in Stuttgart
Stuttgart is the home of Porsche. On my way back to London I dropped in on Stuttgart to see the Porsche Museum and then went for a walk in old town. It is a very charming place. You can see why Germany is leading the pack economy wise in Europe. I bought my first Porsche in high school at age 16. It was a 914. I bought my first 911 Targa at age 19 and have missed it ever since. I bought i
O menino que foi o mochileiro que voltou.
A idia de ser au pair surgiu em minha vida quando aos 19 anos eu percebi que meus velhos no teriam dinheiro para me pagar a viagem que me haviam prometido e que eu vinha esperando desde os 15 anos. Atravs dessa modalidade de intercmbio eu mataria os dois coelhos a vontade de viajar e a falta de dinheiro com uma paulada s. medida que a viagem ia tomando forma na minha cabea en
Titisee
Titisee 21.09.2011.Nach gut drei Wochen haben wir Winterthur wieder verlassen. Die Tage waren ausgefllt mit Besuchen der Baustelle Treffen mit Handwerkern Familie und Freunden sowie Wartungsarbeiten am Wohnmobil. Nun geniessen wir wieder das ssse Nichtstun im Moment am Titisee. Das Wetter hat sich auch wieder beruhigt. Der Regen der letzten Tage hat der Sonne Platz gemacht. Nachdem sich de
Chapter 4 DAY 3 Amsterdam to Heildelberg

Super Fast Driving One Minute and Then We Might as Well Have Been on The M25
It rained and it rained and it rained overnight. Like last year we left a hot summer in England just to endup with rain. It did mean that it was quite cool first thing in the morning so it was good conditions to go for a run and see some more of Baden Baden. The parkland along the river was lovely and there were some great views around the town.I went back to some points with the camera later to
The French Roads Were Quick and Empty But at a Price
We left at 5.00am in order to make sure that we had ample time to get to Dover to catch our 8.15am ferry allowing for predictable roadworks and other issues on the M25. Respect to Sea France in that they sent us a text letting us know about some roadworks on the M20 so warning us to allow some extra time to get there. In the end we got there with plenty of time to spare which meant that
Heidelberg
With a few days to spare before we have to hand our car back we have decided to make a weekend of it in Heidelberg. So a few hours from Trier we make our way to this romantically impressive University City. The University was established in 1386 and is the oldest University In Germany.Located on the banks of the Neckar River in the south west of Germany and the western gateway to the Black Fo
Valter's Mountain Retreat
We went to see the apartment Valter was going to be staying in after we left Schiltach. The rooms are above a mountain restaurant which is only open on weekends. It is surrounded by miles of beautiful hiking trails and I guess it is pretty wellknown in the area. The he is renting it from the man who also owns a beautiful hotel in town where Valter has to move to at the end of July.We boug

Black Forest Train Replica
Even if you are not a rail fan it is well worth your time to visit the model tain layout here. The detail is amazing The area the layout is in changes to reflect the lighting you would find in a 24 hour day with the villages and trains lighting up at dusk. Beautiful Sorry but due to my camera quality and lack of photoshop skills you will need to zoom in on these to really see the quality
Black Forest Italy and Paris
The accompanying photos begin where our trip did In Wolfach in the Black Forest. No photos can prepare you for how beautiful and peaceful this area is. Valter39s company is in Wolfach so he picked us up at the train station there. We took the train from the airport in Frankfort. We stayed in a beautiful apartment in a house in a nearby town Schiltach. We were very fortunate to stay the

Black Forest cuckoos and stair rods
From Switzerland its an easy 3 hours drive to Munstertal at the southern end of the Black Forest. Our campsite is famed for its facilities which also means that it is completely full. There are nice big pitches but ours backs on to the railway line with diesel engines thundering no more than 2m from the caravan from 5am onwards hmmm.The clientele of this campsite is definitely different mos
