As I mentioned on Monday, our trip to Hamburg this weekend was really fun. And although we missed the munchkin, she was having a great time at home with Oma and Opa. Apparently Ayla was the only one that did some pouting. When we got to the airport in the morning, the...
WEBMU 2010 was definitely a big hit
We're back from Hamburg and what a weekend it was. We saw the city in a whirlwind of fun, food and lots of laughs...and it was really great to finally meet so many of the people I've conversed with over the years via our blogs. I've got a bunch of photos to share and...

If you’re ever in Schmiedefeld am Rennsteig…
It seems like the winter vacation we took to East Germany was ages ago now, but somehow I still didn't manage to say everything about it that I wanted to about it. I talked about our guest house, shared a bunch of photos from one of our walks and the trip to the...
Almost like swimming with the fishes
Our first day in Schmiedefeld, we had absolutely gorgeous weather. We really hoped the rest of our time there would be just as wonderful but it started raining on day two and we refused to just stay inside. Thanks to the loads of brochures in the table of our guest...
Forest walk — Day 1 in Schmiedefeld
I think I mentioned how incredibly gorgeous it is in this area...but you really can't grasp the natural beauty unless you see it yourself. I'm not even sure my photos did the area justice. It seemed that almost everywhere you looked, it was just so serene... and I'm...
Our new favorite family in Schmiedefeld am Rennsteig
Two weeks ago today we were woke up in our apartment in East Germany, ready to explore this unknown world. East Germany has a pretty bad reputation because a lot of places have become desolate and dilapidated in the past 10 years. We were near the Thüringer Wald...
