Time flies when you are having fun!

We got some wine and jack brought some glasses from the shop - so we added a sophisticated touch to our dinner. It's ne ...

I mean: The Island Mainau, seen from the ferry leaving Konstanz. (I had some pics of Konstanz, too, but the weather was worse then and thus they're rather cl ...


The Maastricht Family

We ate pies and pasties, saw Wicked on West End, watched the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, and ambled through the Kensington gar ...
