Christmas markets in Cologne, Germany

I went with some friends and had a wonderful day, in total we visited 4 out of the 6 markets, they are all in walking distance but a small "train" rides between them as well.
I can recommend these markets to everyone. They are beautiful and fun. There is lots of fantastic food and drinks as well as decorations and gifts one can buy.

To give everyone an impression I made some photies :)
Enjoy

Some dead animals at the medieval market, I hope the skunk protested *G*

I'm back...

Uh well actually I'm already back for a week, but I took some time to resettle and cuddle my dogs and guinea pigs.

The last 3 months were great at Writtle, I learned a lot, made lots of new friends from all over the world and I had lots of fun.

I managed some nice pictures of the Muscovy ducks and one of Tippy as well as one of a fairy ring of mushrooms.

Enjoy :)

Cambridge trip

Hi everyone,

finally some pictures again, Blogspot was not cooperating, so sorry for the delay. None the less, on Saturday we went to Cambridge. It was very good weather and there was lots to see and do. A friend and I also discovered the best bookshop (Heffers) in the world, where we lost each other for 15 minutes *G*
Being Cambridge they have lots of colleges in beautiful old buildings, Writtle college is noting compared to those student accommodations.

Well enjoy the pictures,

A nice clock at some other college, and also a beautiful sky


This reminded me of Lord of the Rings, but perhaps I've just got to much imagination
