Betti in good old Germany

OK... so many important events worth sharing with you... I'm not even able to keep this blog up to date. So here are some impressions of Betti's visit. She came back from Texas for a couple of weeks and I had the pleasure to welcome her here in Freiburg.

Olala.... so viele nennenswerte Ereignisse, über die ich berichten muss. Ich komme gar nicht mehr hinterher. Also hier sind erstmal die Foto von Bettis Besuch in Deutschland. Sie kam 'kurz' rüber aus Texas und ich hatte die Ehre, sie hier in Freiburg willkommen zu heißen.

Oberlindenhock (last weekend of June)

Delicious German food.... Currywurst


We went to Oberlindenhock to see our dear friend Kim Carson from Louisiana. She is a great country singer and it's exactly been 4 years since me first met at exactly the same spot. Dont fear the Twang! She came with a great band this year and we sang and danced the whole night.


Tuesday: discovering some nice places in the Black Forest


The "Baumliege" near Todtnauberg. We were enjoying the magnifiscent view over the Black Forest and had a yummy picknick. *thank you Tupperware*


Betti on the Baum


On our way back, we stopped at a typical restaurant and had 'Kaffee und Kuchen'. We ordered a Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte of course which actually was more Kirschwasser with a bit of Torte...


'High-King'.... euh... hiking!


Wednesday: visting Colmar
This is the house where Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi was born. He was the sculptor of Miss Liberty which - as we all know - was a present from the people of France for the USA to celebrate 100 years of independence.

The market hall Colmar.


In La Petite Venise (Littele Venice / Klein-Venedig)... a beautiful part of Colmar.




Selfie-alarm!


This was actually before we met in Freiburg: I went to Betti's hometown to celebrate her birthday with family and friends. We watched the match Germany - Ghana afterwards.

Guitchime the Bratmaxe
World Cup crazyness everywhere...




Sunday: Walked up to the famous Schloss Lichtenstein with Betti and her lovely mother...


s'Schwabenländle



Romantic architecture... looks like Middle Ages, but was actually build during the 19th century.

Guitchime rupft Unkraut hinter der Mauer...

some random old people in front of the bust of Wilhelm Hauff who wrote a romantic novel about this castle
