Travelog for: The WotWots

Hello Mum,

LIFE MISSION, LIFE MISSION, LIFE MISSION....

today we made a trip to Hanover, the capital city from Lower Saxony.
In Hanover they have a zoological garden with a lot of strange animals we´ve never seen before.

At first the controller want to debar us to enter the zoo  , he was afraid of an Virusinfluence from far unknown gallaxies....pffff
Hostmum and dad had a long discussion with this dutyful person and after nearly half an hour we passed the counter….


Our first step was the apehouse with little funny creatures, we discover an affinity to all the peoples called humans.







Most of them were smaller, but one (hostmum told us he is the chief of the gorillaclan) was very big so that we get afraid a little bit.



At next we made a short boattrip to see funny birds, horses, animals with big noses and long necks…













And then we see lions. Realy dangerous, big and greedily lions!!! What a luck, that there was securityglas between us and the beasty animal.



In the next attraction of the zoo lives the Northamerican animals like caribou, meercats, Bisons and Wolves. Fortunately they were not hungry and made a digestionsleep.





The following station on our trail was Asia with big thick-skinnes persons, elephants. We saw tigers, leopards and nice birds….





time for a groupphoto with Hase and Mr.Lemony



…..we came around a corner and where amased….  Had scotty beamed us back home to Australia?





We were on the australian highway and surrounded by kangaroos!!!









Hostmum told us this is a part of the zoo and we should to cool down. Here we could explain all the orginality animals from the australian continent to hostmum and dad.

It was a realy nice day …….

hugs and kisses

Hello Mum,


Yesterday we made a trip to Fritzlar.

first we had to drive by car , the weather was pretty good....sunshine ....







Fritzlar is a small German town (pop. 15,000) in the Schwalm-Eder district in northern Hesse, 160 km (99 mi) north of Frankfurt, with a storied history. It can reasonably be argued that the town is the site where the Christianization of northern Germany (north and east of the Roman Limes) began and the birthplace of the German empire as a political entity.The town has a medieval center ringed by a wall with numerous watch towers. Thirty-eight meters (125 ft) high, the Grauer Turm ("Grey Tower") is the highest remaining urban defense tower in Germany




On the plate some information about Fritzlar...



here you have this great view......The monastery, hostmum went to school here



The St. Peter's Cathedral is one of the most beautiful Romanesque-Gothic churches in Hesse.

Three-aisled basilica
The Cathedral of Fritzlar measures 43 meters (from the basement to the top). He continues to shape the cityscape of the small town in the Schwalm-Eder-Kreis (formerly Circle Fritzlar-Homberg). The three-aisled basilica in Fritzlar is considered one of the most beautiful in Germanyl



another view..



the marketplace with nice halftimbered houses





another nice view...



The city hall, first documented in 1109, is the oldest in Germany still in use for its original purpose






...here you see the biggest halftimbered house in hesse,
"das Hochzeitshaus" the wedding house




next stop... the Garvensburg  The castle was built in 1894-1898 by industrialist William Garvens, who was knighted in 1908 and afterwards called William of Garvens. He built a hunting lodge in the style of the late period, a castle-like villa, surrounded by an English garden



here we are sitting over the  Edersee, also called the Eder dam is 11.8 square kilometers of water surface, with 199.3 million cubic meters of storage space in terms of area and volume two-third largest  Reservoir in Germany and is located on the Fulda-Eder inflow.













The Edersee Dam is a hydroelectric dam constructed between 1908 to 1914 across the Eder river, near the small town of Waldeck in northern Hesse, Germany, it lies at the northern edge of the Kellerwald. The dam is primarily used to generate hydroelectric power and to regulate water levels for shipping on the Weser river.


that was a very nice trip

next stop....Heidelberg

love  Spotty and Dotty Wot

Dear Mum

We've safely arrived in Heidelberg. The weather could be better but the weather forecasts promises a lot of sunshine for the weekend, so let's hope for the best.

There are already quite a few other TV's visiting here and we're looking forward to some nice adventures with them.

And we met our host's cat Sammy who's quite big but very lovely.









Lots of love from the WotWots

Dear Mum

We went to Mannheim, a neighbouring town of Heidelberg and took some photos of the water tower and the Friedrichsplatz with its fountains and flowers. A very beautiful place.









Love from The WotWots

Dear Mum

We spent two days at the UNESCO world heritage site of the Upper Middle Rhine Valley. The weather was great and the landscape fantastic. Hope you like my photos.

On the train to St. Goar.


There are no bridge in the Upper Middle Rhine Valley and so ferries are still common, we took one from St. Goar to St. Goarshausen.

Relaxing on the backs of the river Rhine near St. Goarshausen.


Admiring the statue of the famous Loreley.


We climbed the rock Loreley and had a fabulous view down to the Rhine valley.






Afterwards we took a train to Bacharach and climbed to the youth hostel of Stahleck Castle where we spent the night.


Love from The WotWots

Dear Mum

Today we had a look around Bacharach which is a very beautiful
town with old houses and towers. We also took a walk along the Rhine.











Then we took a boat to Rüdesheim, a bit south. We rode the chair lift to the top of the mountain which was a great experience. Hostmum told us that this chair lift played a part in Elvis' movie "G. I. Blues" from 1960. Here's a link if you're interested.





We had a great time.

Love from the WotWots.

Dear Mum

Today we said good-bye to three TV's.

HolgiHH is travelling to the USA.



Králi will stay in Germany and travel further north.



Sheela is travelling to the United Kingdom.



Bye,
The WotWots

Good morning, Mum. Guess what? We stayed awake all night long and spent it with nuriayasmin at the psychiatric clinic where she works as a nurse. It was very quiet, though, no new patients were admitted and those who were already on the ward mostly slept.









Now it's ten past eight in the morning here and we're all going to bed.

Keep fine,
The WotWots

Dear Mum

Have we told you that nuriayasmin's cat Sammy likes us very much? He knows where we normally sit and often comes, grabs us and carries us around the apartment. He's very careful with his teeth, so don't worry, we're absolutely fine. Well, today we teased Sammy a little. He was sleeping (which he does most of the day) and we tried to wake him up.



He looked up but unlike us wasn't willing to wave into the camera.



Then he put his head down again and there was no chance to convince him to play with us. Perhaps next time.



Bye,
The WotWots

Hi Mum

Greetings from Denmark. We're on a short holiday here and it's really great. We're at the Baltic Sea coast and have a lot of nature around us.















Bye,
The WotWots

Dear Mum

It has become quite cold and windy here but that doesn't keep us from exploring our surrounding. Here are some more pictures from the village in Haderslev community where we're staying, the port and the coast.

















Lots of love,
The WotWots

Dear Mum

Sorry that we haven't written for such a long time. Our host was busy and the weather was quite rainy, too. However, we're fine and also heard that we're going to continue our journey at the end of the month. Thanks for arranging a new host for us, mum.

Well, today we took a walk in the field and vineyards near the suburb of Rohrbach, so here are our pictures:











Bye from the WotWots

Dear Mum

Here are some pictures of the suburb where we currently live.









Bye,
The WotWots
