Last weekend 4 friends of mine and me took a trip to the Alpstein Area located within the Appenzeller Land. We arrived on Friday afternoon at Bürlisau, parked our car at the cablestation and took the direct path up to Bollenwees and stayed there for 2 nights.
Zwinglipass nearly reached, Fälensee way below us

On Saturday we took the following route:

The beautiful Aegean Sea, next to the Acropolis of Lindos

We just returned from our summer vacation. This year it lead us to Greece, Rhodes. Within 10 days we visited most attractions of this beautiful (and hot island) and spent quite some time at the beach - finally enough time to read some books and spend time with Lisa and Anja.

The ancient supermarket of Rome

This years anual city trip took us to Rome.

We left Baden Airport on Friday evening and arrived there again on Sunday at just about the same with our friend, the Prince of Oman. This time, he didn't join us on our flight we super-exclusive Ryan Air, but took his private 747 to get to Baden Baden.

In total a very packed weekend, basically the condensed version of the Japanese "see Europe in 5 days"-scheme.

Anyhow we did see everything there was to see: Lot's of ruins, churches, a tossed salad for dessert, traffic jams on expert-level, the pope (thank you Mr. Ratzinger for stopping by ), the most modern elevator in the world, new transportation concepts and, did I mention all those churches?

Wir sind unter die Bauherren gegangen. Zusammen mit U-Haus (Ergenzingen, Rottenburg) entsteht in Wurmberg bei Pforzheim gerade unser zukünftiges Heim. Im Bautagebuch dokumentieren wir den Fortschritt, fassen unsere Erfahrungen zusammen und geben vielleicht für den einen oder anderen "Häuslebauer" ein paar hilfreiche Tipps und Tricks.

This is the blog about the construction of our new home. Sorry - German only.
