Travelog for: Ceylon

Hello Mum,

We went to Hamburg. It was a lovely sunny day! We went to the Binnenalster – a little lake in the center.



We stopped at his nice place and had a nice photo.



See – what happened? We heard a voice calling our names. IT was HömpfMömpf with another TV.



What a great surprise – of course we talked a lot!



Mum, it was so funny that I met HömpfMömpf, who travels on the big German RR, too.




Then we continued our walk.



There was a nice bridge.



We saw this angle on the bridge.



I liked this view.



I saw a boat from the police.



Behind me you can see the town hall.



Hamburg is a beautiful town!



This is a theatre.

Hello Mum,

We visited a smaller town today – called  Bad Segeberg.  First we went into a Chinese Restaurant. It was boring inside – so we played outside.





Then we went to the big Lake of Segeberg. Behind me you can see the monument of an Indian.



I loved the view over the Lake.






We walked around the Lake.



I found lovely flowers!


Wow – this will be a long way!



But we were really sporty!



Later I relaxed in the sun.





It was a wonderful sunny day!

Hello Mum,

Yesterday we had a lazy day in the sunshine.

   

Suddenly two birds landed next to us. HömpfMömpf missed the way to his next host – and Pink Charmin is a new guest of Dicker Kumpel. We all talked a lot.



Then we went inside and wanted to celebrate the arrival of the new guests.




We all chose the sweets we like most.



I had these chocolates.

Hello Mum,

Today we had a surprise for Dicker Kumpel.

   

Erol and B.o.B. blindfolded Dicker Kumpel.



   

Then we installed our big sign for him!



He had a look – and was very surprised!

   

We gave him a big hug – he won two GoldenBears Awards!

   

RikeH was happy and proud too, so we started a party.

First we had a delicious burger and woodruff lemonade.

   

   

We ate almost everything.



Then we had our dessert – a yummy cake and coffee!



I had a yellow lime cake.



Done!



We decided to celebrate for a longer time – but we went closer to each other. Look, we had some bread and Sushi. As drinks we had a nice liqueur from Estonia, with the funny name Herbert!



I sat between SammyFire and Dicker Kumpel – and we talked a lot – it was great!



It was a fantastic party!



Yours

Happy Easter!

Today the Easter bunny was here - and Dicker Kumpel told us that we can search Easter eggs.

   

I started. Maybe there will be something under our chair?

   

   

I found something – great.

   

But there should be more. I asked long hippo. He told me to look into the basket of a lovely bunny lady.

   

Then he helped me to reach the chocolate bunny in the basket.



I got it.



In a wonderful bouquet of flowers I found this chocolate bug.



Look –I was very successful!



We all had a lovely day!



Yours

Hello Mum,

It was still Easter – and we went to visit the grandma of Dicker Kumpel. He told us that we will meet The Easter bunny there. And we were lucky. Look – I talked to the Easter bunny!



Then I met some of the other bunnies hanging around there.



There were two friendly hens.



Later we met a friendly bunny. He read something out of the nice Easter book that Noisy sent to us.





Then something funny happened. Dicker Kumpel’s grandma has a TV named Tobbi. He was lost for two times – the second time he was lost in the Netherlands. But now he came back.

He told us that he went to China – that must me the truth, because he came from China in his envelope. But look how big he is now. Maybe I will become that big someday after being in China, too?



After talking to the big Tobbi I decided to talk to smaller guys.



Mum, it was a nice second day of Easter here – we ate a lot of chocolate – it was yummy!

Hello Mum,

Tomorrow I will move to my next host, so we decided to make a nice excursion. We visited the Wallanlagen – a park in the middle of Hamburg. Here you see  a beautiful building we saw from the garden.



Normally here is a little river – but there was no water today.



Can you see me on this little monument?



This was the Asian part of the garden.



Then I found some colorful tulips.





On our way back home we stopped in Ahrensburg where I saw this beautiful castle.



At home it was time to say good-bye to Dicker Kumpel. We had a lot of fun together.



The others gave me a big hug.



I will write you soon from my next host.

Yours

Hi mum,

today Erol the Pirate and I traveled to Hamburg to our next hosts. We took a first look and jumped  out of the bag.






Erol already knows my new hosts Clairchen and Lewis HH. He introduced me to them.


That's me and Clairchen.


See me with LewisHH.


After a chat they showed me their home. I especially like this colorful woolen flowers. Can you see me?




I met this funny frog. He is sitting above a lamp the whole day.




See me with Queeny, the rubber duck, and Greeny, the crocodile.


I am looking forward for a good time in Hamburg.

All the very best

Hi mum,

to Scillys regret we had a very busy time. But today we have time for a short trip to the Hamburg airport.
That's me in the check-in area looking for an interesting flight for me.






Erol has some more flight experiences and suggested to go to the ceck in machine.


Hmm... I put my name in but they didn't find a flight for me  What a pity!


So we went to the terrace to see some planes. I'm sitting on Scillys head to have a better view.


Oh look, there are some great planes. Behind me you can see an Air France plane. It will fly to Paris.




After seeing the airport and the planes I really would like to fly some day.

All the very best

Hi mum,

today we had sunshine and so Scilly decided to have a walk through the city center after work.
See me in front of the lake Binnenalster with some restaurant boats and some of the famous Alster swans.


These are some other views of the Binnenalster.




We decided to make window shopping. Richy is searching for a new clock. Perhaps we will find a nice one.


This is small an old shopping passage. Very nice!




See me in front of the Alsterarkaden. It is a small shopping alley near the Jungfernstieg.


On these photographs you can see the Hamburg town hall. It is very nice, isn't it?






This friendly lion guards the courtyard of the town hall.


We visited the courtyard. I like the town hall, it is a very impressive building.


There is a well in the courtyard.


I had a break and played with the figures on the well. Can you see me?




All the very best

Hi mum,

today the weather was perfect for a spring walk through the green side of Hamburg.
See me with some wild tulips and daffodils.










We went to the Ohlsdorf cemetery. It is the world biggest cemetery and is also used as a park.


There even are two bus routes on the cemetery. See me in front of a bus station.


Erol and I had a short break on a tree. We had a very nice view.




Here are some impressions from the cemetery.








Finally we had a cup of coffee and a tasty piece of cake. Hm yummi...




Tomorrow I will travel again. My next host will be Hobi. I am looking forward having some new adventures in Lower Saxony.

All the very best

Hello Mum,

today I arrived at Murph’s home. He helped me out of my envelope.





Murph showed me Bad Salzdetfurth to Ceylon. Here you can see me in front of the emblem.



Bad Salzdetfurth is a nice small town with a lot of timbered houses.



There were two salines in the spa garden. The people produced salt here in the past.



Today the people sit next to the salines and breath the healthy air.



Bad Salzdetfurth is an old mining town. All over the town you find old machines for the salt production.





And now a hidden picture puzzle. Can you see me?



We enjoyed the sunny weather next to this lake.



This little river is called Lamme. It flows through the whole city. Maybe Murph will show me its spring.



I found this wonderful flower for you.



Keep your fingers crossed for us that the weather will be fine this weekend. Murph planned a trip for us!

Hello Mum,

Today we made an excursion to Salzgitter-Lichtenberg. We visited this old castle ruin.



All visitors have to go through this gate.



This was my first view of the castle. I wanted to have a closer look.



There was an old catapult in front of the castle. It was gigantic!



The outer walls were so big in the Past.



These were the leftovers of an old house. The people had heating in that time – it was unbelievable.  The plate with the holes was the heating.



We had a magnificent view from the tower. Unfortunately it was closed so we were not able to go on the top.



These walls were very thick!



Can you see us? We looked so small!



This was the garden of the castle.



The Ruin Lichtenberg  was really great!



What a wonderful trip!

Ceylon

Hello Mum,

Murph and I went into the forest today.



Have you ever seen so many blooming bear’s garlics? It looked great.



Murph knows so many mushrooms. He showed me the St. Georg’s mushrooms. They are eatable.



Then I met this friendly snail. I wanted to make a race with it. We started!



Murph cheered for me! Next to him was the finish line. Have a look, who won.



The snail recognized that I was faster. She didn’t want to lose – and went away. I was sad, because I wanted to win!



After this exhausting race I made a rest under this wild orchid.



Later we found other mushrooms - dotted stem boletes. They are very delicious.



These mushrooms were great. They get blue, when you cut them.



It looks great!

Many greetings
Ceylon

Hello Mum,

Today we made a trip to Bad Gandersheim. There was a beautiful cathedral.



We found this fountain on the Domplatz.



On the marketplace there were many old houses.



This beautiful door belongs to the museum of Bad Gandersheim. The weather was too nice to go into the museum.



The water out of this fountain was very cold. But it was great, because the temperatures were very high.



This is the old hospital.



I found this special door of a small church. It is out of bronze.



A last photo of the Dom.



On our way back home we saw these funny chairs.



I wanted a photo with the chair I loved most.



It was funny, wasn’t it?

Until soon
Ceylon
