Travelog for: Knöpfchen

I wish you a wonderful good morning everybody.

Today is our first really day here in Las Vegas.  After a great breakfast at the Mandalay Bay hotel, we visited the shark reef, which was build inside the hotel.
At the entrance I saw this cool crocodile.



Luckily there is a window between this Komodo dragon and us. I think he wanted to eat us.





I touched a real ray. It was so cool and he feels like … hmm like jelly.



In this underwater tunnel and the reef connected to the tunnel, we saw a lot of different fishes and sharks. I also saw the big white sharks and a sawfish. The sawfish scared me more than the white shark, because his saw was so amazing huge. But he was too fast to take a picture with him, so I can’t show him to you.





I am in New York.
Just a joke, near to the Mandalay Bay hotel is the New York New York hotel. It really looks like a small version of New York. They even have a small Statue of liberty.



Here I am standing on the Brooklyn Bridge.



Inside the hotel I had the feeling like I was standing on a street in New York, it was really cool.





Because it was so hot outside we had the idea to take the chance and visit an exhibition here in Vegas. We decided to have a look at the Titanic exhibition. We weren’t allowed to take pictures in the exhibition, but I can tell you that it was really impressive and sad to see the things from the ship and to read about all the hundreds of people who died on the ship.



Here I want to show you the Luxor hotel, were the exhibition was. The hotel looks like a giant pyramid and you have the feeling like you were in Egypt because of all the deco. 























When its dark outside Vegas looks like a completely new place. Everything is really flashy, because there are lights everywhere.





But one of the most beautiful things in the evening is the view at the Paris hotel. Doesn’t is looks wonderful with all this lights?



Before we went to home to our hotel after such a great but exhausting day, we stopped at the Bellagio hotel, because I wanted to show you this amazing foyer.



Good night everybody

Hello everybody.

I am a little bit sad, because this is our last day here in America. This evening we were flying back to Germany, but luckily we have the whole morning to look around Vegas.
After our breakfast we went to an M&M shop. It was a very big shop with 4 floors full with M&M’s and merchandise. I was really impressed of all this different colors.





Here I am standing right in front of the huge Caesars Palace. It is the biggest hotel we have seen here in Vegas.



This is a replica of the famous Trevi-fountain. It looks really beautiful. One day I will travel to Rome to see the real Trevi-fountain.



In the Venetian hotel they were celebrating carnival the whole year, but unfortunately we didn’t see anyone in a costume. Mum told me that this hotel really looks like a small version of Venice.







In front of the Tropical Island hotel stands a pirate ship and every evening there is a show in which the ship is sinking.



Before we leave we wanted to do one very important thing. So we went into a casino and played on a slot machine. It made really fun, but after a short while I game away my dollar.





Then it was time to say good bye to the beautiful and flashy Las Vegas.



When we arrived at the airport Mum told us, that we had to wait one hour before our flight will start.  First we sat down to wait for our flight.





But it was too boring for us. So we had the idea to play some games to shorten our idle time.







Our return flight took 10 hours and we all were sleeping most of the time. The craziest thing is that we started in Vegas on Saturday evening and landed in Düsseldorf on Sunday evening. Because of that we all were really tired and went to bed as soon as we were home.

Hello everybody.

Today was a very happy day because a new TV arrived here in Bochum. We were really excited when we saw the envelope.



I opened it and out of the envelope came a bee. Her name is Bzzzzz and she is coming from Finland.







She told us that she is joining the Long tome RR in which I am taking part too. I am so excited to start my journey soon.





We talked a while before she showed us the things she had brought with her, they were really cool especially the postcard.





After that we all hugged Bzzzzz to welcome her.



Then we went into the kitchen and took out a cool ice cream. Purple helped Little to cut the ice into pieces. Can you see the small butterfly’s on it?









The ice cream was very yummy.

Good afternoon everybody.

Today is the famous Festival of Lights in Dortmund in the Westfahlenpark.
When we arrived in the park, we searched for the right place for our picnic and the firework in the evening. It was a great picnic and we had a lot of delicious foods.









After this great meal we had some time before the firework starts, so we were walking around the park. We saw a lot of cool lambs and pictures that were made out of lights.









This is the Florian television tower; he is the famous emblem of Dortmund.



Than at half past ten it was time for the firework. It was really amazing. Sometimes I had the feeling like the whole sky was full with lights.











We had a really great day in the Westfahlenpark today.

Today I had to say goodbye to my family and my wonderful new friends. I am starting the long time RR today and because of this I am traveling to nuriayasmin today. I am so happy and excited that I could finally start my journey. I am also very curious about what places I will see and what new friends I will meet.
But I will also miss my family and my new friends. I hope I will see my friends again one day and that I will come back home safely after my journey.
Before I went into my envelope everybody hugged me and wished me a save and short trip.
Goodbye everybody and Mum and Dad

Hi Mum

That was a quick journey. I've safely arrived in Heidelberg and have already said hello to nuriayasmin's cat Sammy.







Bye,

Dear Mum

How are you? I'm fine but my host no longer likes to show TV's around her hometown, so that's why you haven't heard from me for so long. However, today we travelled to Hamburg and now I've finally got some photos to share. Here they are:















Bye,
Knöpfchen

Dear Mum

"Pozdrav z České republiky". That's Czech and means "Greetings from Czech Republic. We're in Plzeň, a city in the west of the country which is famous for his beer, Pilsner Urquell. Here are some pictures of me exploring the city.

This is the cathedral and the "náměstí republiky", the place of the Republic.





This is the city's main station, "hlavní nádraži":



Plzeň has a lot of beautiful old buildings like these ones:









This is the entrance of the brewery:





Apart from the fact that my host spent quite a bit of money on books to help her improving her Czech, she mainly came here to see a concert of Karel Gott, a famous Czech singer. He also sings in German, but nuriayasmin says she only likes his Czech songs and never goes to concerts in Germany.



This is the church of the holy Jan Nepomuk, kostel svatého Jana Nepomuckého.



More beautiful buildings:

Now I feel fine and will made a degistion sleep in Dr. Kröbners comfortable armchair.

Hello Mum,

First snow in Delligsen, on schedule to Advent. Scruffy, Mr. Casanova, *coco* and me argue Hostmum- and dad to hike in the snow. So they put the car out of the garage and we drove onto the Hils. It´s a hardly work to accomplish a snowcovered trail for us TV´s especialy for Mr. Casanova and his little feet.















On a smal clearing we get the idea to keep an eye out for a christmastree.



At one place we found so much nice trees, and we can not decide whichone to take. We felt into a great discussion and after testing we defer this campaign because we´ve forgotten the saw.





After arriving at Home Dr. Kröbner illuminated the Advent wreath with  the first candle and we enjoy a evening in the warm livingroom.



Kiss

But when we went to his deckchair we found it empty. Only a small Note: Bye my friends, I´m down under Mr. Shaun.
