California Dreaming...

I've booked my winter vacation! Four weeks of San Francisco, Further Confusion and RV trip with my parents next January / February.

Trip to Saxony

My parents are here for the weekend, and after we went to the zoo of Nürnberg yesterday, we drove to Hohenstein-Ernstthal, the place where my great-grandfather was born. Admittedly, the town is better known for being the birth place of someone a bit more famous: German writer Karl May. Hohenstein is a nicely restored little town with some old buildings. It definately deserves a lot more recognition by tourists.

Late new year update

So, what had happened the last two weeks?

Just noticed...

...that I didn't write about my parents visiting me last weekend. They arrived on Thursday evening here (gave me plenty of time to clean up my place *ahem*), spent the Friday in the Old Town of Nuremberg while I was at work and afterwards we visited the Frankonian Beerfestival -- which is actually an oversized beer garden in the moat... But the beer was good and the mood quite relaxed.
