Right after we took the previous Beer Balcony photo yesterday evening, we had our next visitors coming up the stairs.
Lisa (on the left) also attended the same international school with son Thomas and friend Gareth. So it was a small 10-year reunion. This all happened by chance.
Lisa, originally from Bad Homburg, is currently enrolled at university in Aberdeen. I’ve got her mom on the other side.
My brother came by two days ago and we spent the evening on the balcony. We had light beer on the dark balcony, but there was also a little light from the living room and we also had some candles lit. My iPad camera wouldn’t recognize this, though. We were sharing stories on the balcony…
On the morning of 1 December, we were blessed with the sight of the first snow in this season. This was taken from the Balcony, a.k.a. Maria’s Beer Balcony. Right now, the beverage to be enjoyed on the balcony is Glühwein (mulled wine). I sent the same photo to my adult children right away. They…

We had met the same year when we moved here 18 years ago. Over the years, with changes in work schedules and family needs, we’ve had fewer chances to meet. So,…
The snow we had for the past few days has mostly melted by now. But what little we had was perfect for our four-day Christmas market (which ends this evening). Here are a few photos I took two days ago. This was one of the better Christmas markets as we had snow instead of rain!
This get-together happened on a short-notice visit in July. In the early afternoon, I found out that Jinsuk was in town, and he first checked with me to make sure I was still around – take that any which way you like 🙂 . The last time we had seen each other was in 2009….
