Traveling in Southern Germany

What a joy it is to travel together with a friend, Les from Kenya spend some days with me. Our days were filled visting with wonderful places around the southern parts of Germany. Sometimes I "forget" how beautiful Germany is.

Here some pictures from Lake Constance. The Island of Mainau is in the middle of the lake and a gorgeous spot to visit. The castle and the gardens are magnificent. Highlight is the butterfly house.

A New Experience

 Part of life is to experience and learning new things. A wonderful way to grow and expanding my world. Yesterday I had the privilege to practice shooting with bow and arrow.  As you can see in the pictures the scenery is beautiful and the company of my nephew (my teacher) and his kids made it even more special. I love the challenge and enjoyed it immensely.

Much Fruit!

One of  the fun things this time a year in Germany is the plentiful harvest of various fruits! My families garden is full of delicious berries. Picking it is so much fun!







Dear Friends
My niece went back to Australia yesterday. We all where so sad, it was hard to let her go!
It was such a joy spending time with her, I will miss her.

London

While in London I visited my "old" friend Rose Marie Miller. We go back many years and share lots of memories. In the 90's we traveled and ministered extensively together. She is a true inspirational women! 91years old and still involved in ministry in London among Asian women.

It was a treat to see her on my recent trip to London. She has not changed a bit!




London

My niece Franziska and I went for 4 days to visit London. We had a great time with much sight seeing and exploring! We were able to celebrated an evening service at Westminster Abby, watching the Guard Change at Buckingham Palace, strolled through Hyde Park, passed by Kensington Palace, saw the House of Parliament, wrote the tube and red buses, spend time to learn about England's History at the Tower and were impressed by the London Bridge! Here are some pictures, enjoy!

The red telephones are still around
