Thanksgiving, Expat style

November 25, 2007

Our Thanksgiving party was a roaring success.  We had 24 guests, pretty evenly split between German speakers and English speakers.  Charlie was a hit with the kids and surprisingly well-behaved.  I’m not worried at all anymore about him interacting with Oliver when Oliver’s a little older.

Boat tours are available between Kelheim and Weltenburg, but we unfortunately found out about this too late. The Donaudurchbruch (Danube gorge) near Weltenburg   Baroque church of the Benedictine Abbey Weltenburg   The Abbey brewery, claiming [...]

May 13, 2007

Yesterday, Rainer and I met up with O-tay and fam to take in our first baseball game in Germany. We headed over to the Armin-Wolf Arena at Donaustaufer Straße 260 to watch the Regensburg Legionäre take on the Gauting Indians. Despite some ominous morning storm clouds, the weather turned out to be perfect for a [...]
