Simon,
the last few hours before my journey back to Austria I spent a few hours walking and cycling around in Hamburg. It’s a wonderful city. The latest photos can be viewed here:

Sehr schön ! Ich habe 2002 eine Wochenende auf Amrum verbracht (leider keine Fotos). Die Nordseeküste und die Inseln von Deutschland sind sehr schön im Sommer aber etwas aufregend im Winter!

Werner, I looked through your photos with great interest. You see, my grandfather was born and raised in Eckernförde, and his forefathers were all from Schleswig-Holstein. My Father was born in Blekede...not S-H but on the Elbe anyway. I still have relations in Kiel. Your photos brought back many memories of visiting them all in the area. Nord-Ostsee Kanal, Kiel und Laboe, Sylt, die Nordsee Küste und Wattenmeer. Wonderful places.
Thank you for sharing that. Great photos! Really took me back to my roots.
Best regards,
Svend
Svend, thank you for your comment. I’m happy and honoured to read that my pictures touched ans moved you. After all, that’s one of the best things in publishing personal impressions and memories: Make others aware that everything and everybody is related and connected.

Svend, Kiel is a wonderful city with a long, interesting tradition of seafaring, marine and maritime technology and architecture. Having relatives in this area shall make your visit even more important and gratifying.
I look forward seeing part of my family living in the easternmost province of Austria near the hungarian border, maybe next spring or autumn.
Best regards,
Werner.

ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

Phil, congratulations, Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a beautiful, picturesque and romantic old town. Landscape, culture and food of Bavaria, the German state where Nuremberg (Nürnberg) is located, are very similar to Austria. Schleswig-Holstein near the Danish border, the northernmost state of Germany in which I live, is quite different from the Bavarian/Austrian culture.
I’m glad you enjoyed your trip to Germany. It’s an interesting, really big country.
