It's thursday and it's late... Family arrived yesterday: the in-laws, MIL's sister plus FIL's cousin and his wife. They are all staying at a beach hotel not far from our place so we get to spend time together as well. It's fun but it's also time consuming so I don't have my usual "blogging time" . Regular blog activities will resume next week ! Here is a picture of downtown Hamburg taken last week, it was a wonderful, sunny day up north! This is the Alster lake right in the middle of everything. If you look carefully you see a large white building (they are actually two next to each other) with a green (aged copper) roof: the larger part on the left is the Four Seasons Hotel. On the right is the building where I used to work. Update (because Barbara asked in the comments: I worked for a bank, I was in the loan department and more specific : collaterals) More pictures next week.

And here is an excellent and oh, so clever quote I read yesterday here while visiting peace globes (see prior post - too many interesting peace globes, too little time...), these are truly words to live by :

Many years ago a wonderful book by Robert Fulgham was published called Everything I Ever Needed To Know I Learned In Kindergarten.

Share everything
Play fair
Don't hit people
Put things back where you found them
Clean up your own mess
Don't take things that aren't yours
Say you are sorry when you hurt somebody
Wash your hands before you eat. Flush.
Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you
Take a nap every afternoon
