Germany Weekend February 09
Thanks to a special offer from Ryanair,we were able to make a quick
trip to
Helen's family in Germany. We had a great time, and
saw most of the family
during our stay. It was cold, but that didn't stop
us from doing anything.
The pictures tell the story:-

Nina and Torsten discuss the political situation

Tim ( or is it Niels ?) keeps an eye on Phillip's drippy drink

Nina speaks, Inge gives her assent!

Sandra is the proud Mum of Phillip

Meanwhile Niels (or is it Tim?) attacks the chocolate cake

Helga and Ilse contemplate yet another cup of Paradiso Tea

Gabi and Michael steel themselves for yet another cream cake

Michael is happy to look after his grandson

Stephan and Uncle Gunther agree that there are no calories in Annegret's special cakes

Helen takes a quick check as to the condition of the inside of her eyelids

Niels (or perhaps Tim) grabs a quick slurp

Our Host and Hostess check the state of the coffee machine

Wow Magic! all the cakes have disappeared!

Old Git braces for another portrait attempt

You what???

Hostess Annegret smiles with relief, that her guests are no longer starving

This is the "Right sort" of snow

This is the pond - now where did I put my skates?
So on Tuesday we had to fly home, the weather didn't affect us much, the plane was a bit late.
We were very grateful to Annegret and Klaus for their super hospitality - as always. We are
hoping to return the compliment very soon.
