Sorry for spamming my f-list but I wanted the baby pics friends only. Karlsruhe is fair game for everyone though. You might see my slight love for all things green and architecture :D
If you're interested in my week - I can do a short summary, if not just follow the lj-cut.
Made in in 5 hours to Hockenheim on Wednesday ! My first time without any train being late.
Spent Wednesday with my best friend and her children (C&C) just talking and playing.
Repeated this procedure on Thursday.
Went home with my brother Thursday evening.
Spent Friday making a cake for his birthday and food shopping and just generally hanging out.
Friday afternoon back to my best friend and TV watching (Volver and The Covenant - both were fun but a bit predictable at times)
Saturday swimming at the lake - the weather was great but I didn't take my camera because we weren't always watching our things.
Sunday was even hotter, so we went to the lake again.
On Monday we visited a mutual friend who has three small children - we met them on Crete 2006 (Max - 3 years, Marlon and Mariella - both 11 month old twins). I have the utmost respect for her !!!!! In the afternoon we watched the "Deutschlandtour" come live through the village (cycling).
In the afternoon I took the train to Karlsruhe and stayed with my brother.
On Tuesday I spent the day in Karlsruhe - hence the pic spam.
My train left 11.25 a.m. on Wednesday but since Christian brought me to the station before work I ended up sitting in a café for about 2 hours drinking one tea and reading a book. The waitress was looking my way every 10 minutes :D
Sounds boring ? Admit it, even I think so. But with two small children NOTHING is boring. Not even the nights :)
Nearly forgot: we've decided where our next vacation is going to be - RHODOS. Probably next MAY *happy jump*
Now on to the pic spam

This is Carl Friedrich as you can read on the right.
A whole lot of pictures of the castle of Karlsruhe:
Now it's getting a bit green - the garden in front of the castle:
The castle tower - as you can see we were allowed to go up there though you have to pay a fee. You actually pay the fee for the museum inside where I spent 5 hours - geeky, I know - and then I went up the narrow tower. 135 steps :D
but a georgous view up there - this castle is actually in the city center (even though it doesn't look like it because of the gigantic park)
The first 2 pictures are of the "Wildparkstadion" (where Karlsruhe's soccer team plays). Love my zoom !!!
And now in the other direction:
A very random church:
And finally the reason why some men shouldn't be allowed in the kitchen - my brother making 'Schnitzel' :P
