Lubeck - August 7, 2009













Wonderful town to stroll around in. Although it was bombed in WWII, the town is built up now and is quite charming. St Mary's church has a curious story about a devil who was helping build the church and realised it wasn't going to be a bar and was about to destroy it with a boulder but was convinced not to on the promise that they were going to build a wine cellar close to the church. I heard this is a nice place to visit during the holidays. Too bad I am afraid of the cold but I do love Christmas. Don't forget to get Marzipan from here. They are really yummy.

Staying with friends at Lutjensee - 2nd Week of August






I stayed at Lutjensee at my Suzanne and Hans Peter's place in the country, 45 minutes from Hamburg. Their daughter's names are Laura Eva and Romy Anna. They were taking horse riding lessons and I went to watch them. I got to brush Romy's horse. They also lived close to a lake where we would swim and play in the sand. We made a little canal and had barbeque one afternoon. I loved playing with them and I love watching them sing and dance, especially the "Fly like an eagle" song.
