Kassel, Germany - 10th December 2013

By: Dr.Kröbner

Hello mum,

we made a short trip to the north hessian capitalcity Kassel., especially the Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe:

The area of the park is 2.4 square kilometres (590 acres), making it the largest European hillside park, and second largest park on a mountain slope in the world. Construction of the Bergpark, or "mountain park", began in 1696 at the behest of the Landgraves of Hesse-Kassel and took about 150 years.

.Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe is administrated by the State of Hesse and affiliated with the European Garden Heritage Network since 2009. On 23 June 2013 it was proclaimed as a World Heritage Site during the UNESCO meeting in Phnom Penh

Delligsen, Germany - 23rd December 2013

By: Dr.Kröbner

Hi mum,

Christmastime is coming and all around the people are busy with decoration and illumination. We too!Dr. Kröbner want to arrange a cristmastree and need our assistance.
But where we can get a Christmastree and how did he looks like? Mr. Lemony sayed that he has seen some trees in hostmums orangerie, ;)

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7343/11582247224_bc5e7dfa0b_z_d.jpg

so we risk a view inside. Indeed, there were some plants, but which we could use for a christmastree?

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7394/11582120263_1fb2b42748_z_d.jpg

http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2843/11582115223_d30bde03eb_z_d.jpg

http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5539/11582692676_ccc2235c0b_z_d.jpg

So we decided to vote by selecting every ones favorit. The result was without anny doubt, we would take the tree in the middle.

http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2812/11582226294_ab9707077f_z_d.jpg

Now the next problem: how to carry it from the orangerie in the livingroom?
After several recommendations we try to permute Günthers idea: to manage it like the Viking, with logs. First we need a wooden beam and a strong rope to build a lifting arm.

http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2825/11582220084_f27a2bb128_z_d.jpg

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7332/11582215044_52b486184c_z_d.jpg

With united power we managed it to lift the bucket of the tree at the backside, while *coco* and Phog … could place a log behind the baseplate. At next the biggest of us had to luffing on a lever to lift the baseplate at the frontside for placing a secound log behind the plate.

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7348/11581872395_30ac56144f_z_d.jpg

After we managed this diffucult parts  Scruffy and Dr.Kröbner pulling the rope and Günther make nonsense. *coco* ,Mr.Lemony and my job was, to lay new logs in the front of the baseplate.

It works surprisingly good! Wavy-Gravy was supervising the experiment. After a while we passed the corridor….

.....Next day, early morning: Christmastreedecoration.
At Hostmums attic we found some knitted balls and other oddities and place it into the Christmastree in expectation of big presents ;)

http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2837/11582595016_147270a201_z_d.jpg

At christmaseve:

We hearded a big noise like stamping and rumbling. Dr. Kröbner means,  it could be St. Claus.
5 minutes after the noises stopped we enter the livingroom and indeed, the cristmastree was surrounded by presentsand Dr. Kröbner started to distribute them and we unwrap our packets
