Picky picking

April 27, 2007

We were shopping at Auchan for some things. There is a pet-shop located in the shopping center of this particular Auchan.

Neuchâtel, Switzerland

April 24, 2007

I thought this billboard ad was very original. The translation for the slogan on the ad is: There is a clean solution for all types of batteries. Everyone was out enjoying the sun and walking along the lake. The lake had many boats and birds on it. It was very picturesque. The Alps could be [...]

A beautiful day in Germany

April 15, 2007

We went to Kehl, Germany yesterday. The kids had a blast walking along the river and playing at the park. It was nice because there were as many French as Germans in Kehl. All were enjoying the day together. Kehl park with water fun! Video sent by pumpkinpie The land on the other side of [...]

Europe has female friendly seats!

Sex, Cheese and French Fries

German Autobahn

April 10, 2007

The first few times we drove on the Autobahn I was terrified.  Really terrified.  There is no speed limit on the Autobahn.  Now, I don’t allow myself to think about the fact that most of the cars are traveling at speeds that would make it impossible for the drivers to react in case of an [...]

Seeing

April 8, 2007

Sweet Bear looked up at me with a triumphant smile.  “See Mama!  A heart!”  Sure enough, there was a heart laying right at our feet.  It was actually a pothole.  A pothole with a romantic soul.
