Bruchsal, Germany - 23rd July 2008

Today was the last school day of the school year. All kids and Petra are free of school for six and a half weeks now. So for a start they decided to play garden golf. Petra packed us in her backpack and climbed on her bike. Martin, Sabrina and Ralf wanted to be part of it too. Some of our tv friends stayed at home, but Petra told them, that she will take them with her another day.

Here we sit in the car waiting for the children, who forgot something in the house. So it was a chance for Petra to take another photo with us.

Mannheim , Germany - 7th August 2008

Today Petra and her family are invited to visit Petra's aunt and uncle in Mannheim. The weather wasn't that great, so we haven't done any sightseeing.
Here you see a view from the balcony.
You can be sure, that I was a bit in fear to fall down. We were in the fifth floor and it was really high, so I just slipped out of the photo

Hi, Nicki Bear! Your hat is really nice. Do you think, that it also would fit to someone of us here? Please, please let us try.
I think, Burrimul Memu looks rather nice, although Petra isn't that great in taking great photos.
Froggie is really funny with the hat.
Don't you think, that Galaxy Bear is a bit too tall?
Oh yes, Kari. Two hats, what a great idea!
Gina Giraffe looks like a clown. Maybe circus Barum will call soon, who knows.
What do we think about Bruni Lila? I don't know.
Baby uses the hat as a good hiding place. Isn't it funny?
Everyone shouted: No, Bokkie. This hat isn't made for you.
Oh, Nicki Bear recaptured her hat again

The next day a new guest arrived: Bestik. He travels the European Trail and will stay here for about 4 weeks. We first thought, that he comes from Germany, because his hair looks like the German flag, but he comes from the Czech Republic.

Giengen an der Brenz, Germany - 13th August 2008

Today is Petra's and Ralf's 20th wedding anniversary. The decided to go on a trip with us. This trip is also my fairwell trip, because then I will travel to my next host.
Here we are:
At first I felt very scared, when I read this about the "Button in ear". I shouted out loud: Oh no! I don't want a button in my ear. Please call my mum, please!!!
But then Petra told us, that nothing would happen to us. We just would walk through this museum.
"Okay, I said. A museum. How exciting"
But later I realized, that it is a really great museum, just like toyvoyagers' paradise. We visited the Steiff-Museum.
At first we listened to the story about Margarete Steiff's life. Then we had to help a girl and a toy to search for 3000 bears, which got lost on the way to the USA.
First we searched in the ocean:
Then we saw ice bears and penguins.
At last we found the bears in a big room:
When we came out of this room, we walked through an exhibition of different Steiff toys.
At first I was allowed to sit next to the penguins and ice bears - a bit scary.
Then I had been allowed to stand between animals, which also live in Germany
We also found some African animals
This elephant is taller than Petra.
Then we walked through another sort of exhibition, where the toys are behind glasses. Petra wasn't that happy about it, because the photos were worse than before and also then the photos weren't really great because of the dark light in the rooms.
At last Petra wrote something into the guest book and also mentioned, that we had been part of the family

Next to the Stuttgart airport you see this parking block built like a bridge over the autobahn
Emmh, no Petra! You took this photo, when we were on our way to Giengen. Please take a look, there should be another one too.
Yes, that's the right one.
