Recent Trips

Finally, some time to blog besides work and travels.

Party at Greg's kindergarten; picnic with friends; who's taller?; playing outside with neighbours.




Nice areas around Hamburg.
Top row - Blankenese
Bottom row - Zoo (Hagenbecks Tierpark)





Weekend in Copenhagen. Charming. Unfortunately, it was the wrong weekend because it was cold and windy.





Fortunately, there were many muesums with fantastic exhibits.







Malmo, Sweden is nearby. Another charming little city with nice parks and interesting architecture.





Munich is impressive and full of world class sites. From churches to castles, museums to parks.





Schloss Neuschwanstein and Schloss Hohenschwangau (Castles) and interiors





Around the castles and a nearby town called Füssen. A little gem on its own that should not be missed.





Weekend trip to Luneberg. Only an hour from Hamburg and full of historical buildings.






Recent trip to Dublin. Downtown area is an open air museum. Trinity College is Ireland's oldest university (1592).




Brazen Head is Ireland's oldest pub. Guinness here tastes different but better than other parts of the world. Was also at Tom Petty's concert at the O2 area. Great atmosphere.
