Hostdad and Hostmum made for us yummie scrambled eggs

 

Then we went via bicycle to the mountains. We took the comfortable way 



First stop was a great waterfall




Afterwards we took a break on the mountain with a beautiful view




and in the evening ... we were at the pool 




The water was clear and icecold 





The next day it was time to celebrate: Hostmum 's birthday 



We organized balloons...



and a small birthday cake



HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Hostmum     




During the celebration a sudden wind came and blew so strong that we had to hold our balloons

Hello world,

Today is a great day 

Mum phoned that PinkyHH - my best girlfriend - is in the house. I must see her necessarily     

That's why today is time to say goodbye    the other TV's are a bit sad  but I promised to come back for a few days in the future 

Bye bye Stuttgart ... PinkyHH i'm coooooooooming...... 

I'm back hoooooome!!
Lying in my very comfortable travelling-bed I heard my brothers and friends and some unknown voices.
Crawling out of my small parcel I was very happy to see my best friend PinkyHH again 
I hugged her and then I was hugged by my brother Frederik and by all the others.
After hugging I showed them the nice things I've brought with me.
Thank you jo_mlp for my great time in Stuttgart and everything you've done for me 
Yours Lille

Today a small parcel arrived! And a nice cow crawled out of it. "Hi, I'm Paulina", she said, "and this is my first journey as a TV." We all introduced ourselves and hugged her. Then she showed us the nice postcard and the sweets she's brought with her. For the rest of the day we sat together talking about TV-life and this and that...
Yours Lille

When mum was at work today we played hide-and-seek for almost the whole morning.
*Nick* had to search first. He counted to 100 and we others looked for good hiding places. Have a look!
Then *Nick* started to search...and after a long time he found one after the other apart from Frederik. Though Frederik hadn't a real hiding place he wasn't found cause he's so small nobody can see him when he sits somewhere...
We played and played cause everybody had to search alternately.
It was a great morning!!!
Yours Lille

Hello Mum,

I am on a Cruise-Ship. It is the MS Artania and here you see my cabin. 





Today was an important day; Poseidon came onto the ship, because we crossed the Arctic Circle. He was the man in green on the balcony. Some of his friends came too - strange people.
 


Many of the humans went there to get a 'Polartaufe' - polar christening. We didn't want it.
 


But I received this certificate that I crossed the Arctic Circle! 



Yours

Hello Mum,

We arrived in the morning in Tromsö, the sky was grey, but I was sure that it would be better later this day.



There was an icebreaker, but fortunately we didn’t need it.



Later that morning we went to the botanical garden of Tromsö;. There were many beautiful flowers from different mountain regions of the world.



This one was really big.



And this one was really blue.



I found a small waterfall.



And a lovely lake.



Do you know this cotton grass?



In the afternoon we went onto a hill and had great views over the city and the surroundings.





This was funny!



Another view to other mountains.



Our last stop was at this wonderful church, called Eismeerkathedrale - Arctic Cathedral.





What a wonderful day!
Yours Lille

Spitzbergen, Norway – 05.07.2014

Hello Mum,

We spent a day on the sea and today we arrived in Spitzbergen - and visited the Magdalenenfjord - a great place.



There was a big glacier behind me.



A few minutes later the sun came out - and it even looked better here.





The sky, the mountains, and the glacier - everything looked great!



We couldn’t stop taking photos.



After two hours we left the fjord.



I went onto our balcony and had great views there, too.



Goodbye Magdalenenfjord.



Yours Lille

Longyearbyen, Spitsbergen, Norway – 06.07.2014

Hello Mum,

Our next stop was Longyearbyen - the largest settlement and the administrative center of Svalbard, Norway. As of 2008, the town had a population of 2,040. Longyearbyen is located in the valley of Longyeardalen and on the shore of Adventfjorden, a bay of Isfjorden located on the west coast of Spitsbergen.



Some relicts from the time of coal mining here.



We saw the church.



And we were allowed to go into it.



Wow - what is this - I would love to ride a scooter.



I found one!



I met an ice bear!



They have their own sign here.



A wonderful view of our ship!



We had a great time here in the Spitsbergen.

Yours Lille

North Cape, Norway – 07.07.2014

Hello Mum,

It was time to go back into the South, so we went to the North Cape. We should have seen it from the seaside, but look at this. Fog around the ship. Behind me there was the North Cape.



Later we arrived in Honningsvag, there was sunshine and fog.



This was the view to the other direction.



But we left the ship and went to the North Cape. On our way we stopped and saw Niels and his reindeer.



It was really funny - we drove more than 30 minutes through the fog, and when we reached the North Cape the sun was there. Do you know this globe behind me?



There was still fog on the Sea.





There were other monuments in this area.





This monument shows the direction to the North Pole.



My last view to the North Cape, believe it or now, it was 11 p.m. in the night and the sun was still that bright.



Back on the ship I got this certificate that I reached the North Cape!



Yours Lille

Geirangerfjord, Norway – 10.07.2014

Hello Mum,

It was a great day today - we will visit the really famous Geiranger-Fjord. In the morning we saw some people of the ship - they were good in ice-carving.



What a beautiful swan.



We continued our trip and saw many nice fjords! And the sun, of course.





Then we saw the entrance to the Geiranger Fjord with some waterfalls.



This one is called Seven Sisters.



What a wonderful place!



We loved the views in the Geiranger Fjord.



There were some other ships in it.



We left the ship and jumped into a bus - and drove to the top of the mountain Dalsnibba (1495m). We had great views to the fjord and in the wonderful nature.





This was another viewpoint - closer to the Fjord - and you can see our ship in it.





Time to drive a street called Eagle-Street. It had 11 serpentines. Now we saw the fjord with our ship from the other side.



We left and drove along the waterfall again. Well, you can see it good on this photo.



Love Lille

On the ship, Norway – 12.07.2014

Hello Mum,

It was our last day on the ship - and I just walked around and want to shop you some nice places here. We had nice weather again.



People were sitting in the Kopernikus Bar and enjoyed their lifes.



A really beautiful ice sculpture.



This place is called the atrium - you can find the reception here - and more important - the entrance to our famous restaurant!



We had a great cruise - and I loved being on this ship.



Now I am coming home to you!

Yours Lille

Just adding longitude and latitude of Spitzbergen...many miles 

Sorry, I've forgotten to tell you that I'm back home for a while...

Tomorrow is mum's birthday so we decided to surprise her with lots of muffins 
As soon as mum had left home we started our baking-party: First we collected all the ingredients we needed. Frederik read the recipe for us. And for the next five hours we occupied ourselves with baking 92 red wine-muffins (and with stopping Störte drinking the whole bottle of wine )
Okay, of course we all had to try the muffins so we had 86 at last 
I'm sure it'll be a great surprise for mum!!
Yours Lille
