Travelog for: 3*Euro

Mommy,

We made a trip to Hanover ...






oops a curve





I show you the Telemax...huhu.. ..sorry I´m blurry


The Telemax is a telecommunication tower built from 1988 to 1992 in Hanover. The tower was designed by Hans U. Boeckler and is 272 metres (892 feet) high. The tower stands on a 10 metre high base building, which brings its overall height to 282 metres (925 feet). Deutsche Telekom operates the tower.



Then we visited a Swedish furniture store and I bought something for 3 €.....





I bought small bowls for us TVs..



love you

Hello Mommy,

thank God no rain today, so we decided to made a nice trip to an

old abbey from the Benedictine order in Lamspringe. But first we´ve

must taken a walk through the forest, because Mr. Shaun´s

sheepdog Paul we take care of at the moment, has to calm down a

little bit. So we hiked to a very, very old tree, tried to climb on it

while hostmom Andrea took nice pictures from us.





my new bunnyfriend Hoppsi with Paul





By sunshine we reached the monastery garden with many

attractions: a small millpond with ducks, an old watermill, strange

sculptures and funny bushes with red branches. The sun was

wonderfull warm and we had a lot of fun there.







I´m a very small monkey



poor man  so headless....







many kisses

oooooooh ... there are so many nice things here with me in the travel box. but nobody thought of giving me a torch .... grumbl ...



oh dear, hopefully i will be at my next target soon. this box is shaking and rumbling.
hm ... i don't see anything. what can i do? what about singing a little bit?

lah lah lalalalah lah lalalalalh lah lah lah ... the louder you sing the better you feel.

LAH LALALALAH LAH LAH LAH LALALALALALAH LAH LAH ...

ouch! somebody just kicked at my travel box! 

oh mommy! the shaking did not stop. it got worse.
but hey, suddenly i heard voices. and then and felt better. the box must have been carried. it was like in a boat. 



some time later i heard more voices. they were singing something like ooobedoo ... the box stopped shaking.

i kept listening:
"oh, oobee doo
i wanna be like you
i wanna walk like you
talk like you, too
you'll see it's true
an ape like me
can learn to be human too

now i'm the king of the swingers
oh, the jungle v.i.p.
i've reached the top and had to stop
and that's what botherin' me
i wanna be a man, mancub
and stroll right into town
and be just like the other men
i'm tired of monkeyin' around!

oh, oobee doo
i wanna be like you
i wanna walk like you
talk like you, too
you'll see it's true
an ape like me
can learn to be human too"

oh, what a cool rhythm. i liked it. 


next moment i was shocked. the box was opened and 10 eyes stared at me.


they opened the box completely ...


... and welcomed me very warm.


they have had thousands of questions.


i was allowed to sit on one of the big elephants - and we talked and talked and talked.


later on i have seen a wooden giraffe. i was allowed to climb up its neck. then we have eaten all the sweets which i have brought along.

mommy, i am sure, i will have a great time with all these guys!

3*euro loves the whole world 

good morning mommy.
last night i have slept very good. and after all those black hours i have dreamt really colourful!


"sweet dreams are made of this ..."


my host told me to take me with him to his office. i had to dress properly. good, i have got these nice trousers. well, lots of meetings. i did not understand a single word. i was bored.


then i discovered the photocopier. hush, don't tell anyone about what i have done with it ...


this is me with a good snack.

3*euro loves you - and the world of course! 

hello mommy!

today was a great day. my host took me with him to his external jobs.


first stop: it was cold outside, but my host said, it would be warm, where we would go now.


we went through one backyard of an old house ...


... and crossed another one.


then we went downstairs into a really warm room - compared to the temperatures outside. my host wanted to check the heating system and ...


... the oiltank. one was empty, so he ordered some heating oil. expensive, but what would you do?


then we went to another house. hihi, number 3 like 3*euro!


there i helped my host to check the roof. it has been repaired lately. it was funny to shout down a chimney, mommy, really funny! also funny what people lose on a roof.


and then i looked around me. spectacular views. behind me you can see the television tower at alexanderplatz. my host promissed to go there with me at another day. yippieh!


funny how the city looks like from a roof.


you can also look right into people's loft appartments, hihihi ...


now it was time for a little snack. we went to a small café.


since the sun was shining, we decided to eat outside in a park.


hmnjamjnamjnamjnam.


then i saw something strange and asked my host what it was. he said: a church. i said, no, i mean the yellow-orange thing in front of it.


he explained, it was the underground. unbelievable! the underground goes overground. how crazy is this?


we went nearer to a station called "girli"-something ...


then a train came in.


after this we walked back to the car. here is one of the colourful houses in this area. i wondered how they got up there to write those words on top of the house ...


appropos. while walking along the streets, i have seen a lot of graffitis. my host said, he didn't like them. but i do.


here you can see a very nice kiosk, an old doubledecker bus. funny idea!


this really was a nice day between all the jobs my host had to do. and we have had really nice weather!

3*euro loves you and the whole world 

hello mommy.
today i stayed at home with my friends. and this is what we have done.


this is little teddy on the silver arrow, me on the red flash, and little bunny on black power.


we made a very hot race!


little bunny overtakes between us.


then i was first.


ouch. little teddy made a mistake and fell off. clumsy little thing!


so it was me followed closely by little bunny.


first round: i was first at the chocolate!


some minutes later little teddy arrived.


next round: me at pool position on silver arrow, wolfi on red flash, and i.c. bear on black power.


peng! 3*euro started furiously.


i.c. bear passed with an apish speed.


and was first between the sweets. followed by me and wolfi.


next round: i.c. bear and me and little bunny on red flash.


this was much fun, we did it all day long. and ate all of the sweets and chocolate.


this is the victor of the day.


me on a silver arrow. and guess how much this car was: three euros!


after this funny day i needed a rest and enjoyed the evening sun.

3*euro loves you mommy and the whole world also 

forenoon

hello mommy.
my host had a surprise for me. he said, come with me.


so i made myself comfortable in his car.


it was early in the morning, so still i was a bit spleepy.


my host did his job first. then we had a small breakfast snack.


then we moved towards home.


on our way we passed alexanderplatz and its television tower, called tele-asparagus. "television" is greek and latin for "far looking". so this is a far looking tower. but today it is too foggy to go up the tower.


we passed saint mary's church ...


... and the red townhall, where the senate of berlin sits.


we crossed the river spree and had a nice view of the skyline: from left to right: the berlin cathedral, "humboldt-box" (an exhibition hall), tower of saint mary's church, high rise park inn hotel, far looking tower, and the tower of the red townhall.


river spree


this is the french church at gendarm market, north side. this church was built 300 years ago by the prussian king for the french huguenots, that had to flee to prussia because of their believe. they should have their own church, the king said.


this is the famous concert hall at gendarm market.


on the south side of the market is the german church, opposite to the french church. this market square is a very nice one. in summer you would find here many open air cafés.


back in the car we were heading for potsdamer platz ...


...a very new quarter with cinemas, shopping malls, and theatres.


next to it is the berlin philharmony building, called circus karajani. karajan was the conductor of the world famous orchestra when this house was build. hey, doesn't it look like a circus tent?


then we passed brandenburg gate. if the weather will be better, my host promised to come back with me and take a closer look!


this is reichstag building, the seat of the german federal parliament.


what looks like a giant washing machine is the federal chancellor's office.


behind it you see the old conference hall. it is called pregnant oyster. some people call it "smiling mouth of jimmy carter". that's right! the berliners always have funny names for their buildings.


this is bellevue castle. normally the seat of the federal president. but there is no tenant in the moment. they will elect the new president in some weeks.


this is victory column.


later we entered the city west: here is the large department store kadewe, the largest on the european continent. only harrod's in london is bigger.


we passed europa-center. next to it you normally see a ruined church tower. it stands there as a reminder of the last world war. it's called cupped tooth. now it is hidden behind scaffolds for refurbishment.


i asked my host what this is there in the middle of the street. he said it is petrified tooth paste. i don't believe him. it is metal!


then we entered kurfuerstendamm. west berlin's famous shopping street. let's see if i can come back here later.


a very nice boulevard.


so much to see in this city. i am a bit tired.


it's time to drive home and have a nap.

this was a very interesting tour. i like this big city. today i made one of my life missions!

3*euro loves you mommy - and the rest of the world of course 

afternoon

hello mommy.
it's me again!


the wheather cleared up a bit, and so little bunny and little teddy said it would be nice to have a short walk though their favarite park. teddy said, it has a large lake in its centre. probably a pond for you, trudi??
little bunny said it would be good to take the rubber ducks with us to check the lake. but we decided not to schlep those ducks. it must be enough to have a closer look.


when we entered the park we saw the first blooming flowers this year.


aren't those flowers cute, mommy?






then i saw swans. where swans are, a lake can't be far!








what would you say, trudy? is this a nice pond for you?


look what strange signs we found! do you know the meaning?




we continued our walk in the park.














i asked bunny what this is. he said it will be very nice flowers. but i had to wait until easter.
mommy, am i allowed to stay here till easter to see these flowers? pleeeeeeease.


*ding dong* bunny said those are called little snow bells.

3*euro loves the whole world and misses you a little bit, mommy 

hello mommy.

today was sunday. yes, the sun was shining. so i asked my hst to have a sightseeing walk through the city centre. this is where we have been:


we started at the brandenburg gate and ...


... pariser platz.


brandenburg gate has five drive ways. the one in the middle used to be reserved for the prussian kings and german emperors. this one is the widest. they must have had big kings and emperors.




here begins the world famous boulevard "unter den linden" (= under the linden trees).


we walked along this street. in a souvenir shop i found this small cup for - yeeeees 3 euros!


you are always observed in the government district.


bebelplatz with state opera (left), saint hedwig's cathedral (left behind), hôtel de rome (right behind), and the old university library (right).


humboldt university, named after the humboldt brothers. alexander von humboldt has travelled the world and wrote a book called "kosmos", where he included the whole knowledge of his time.


state opera.


new guard (now a memorial for peace and freedom) and the arsenal (zeughaus - now german historic museum).


new guard (in the g.d.r. it was called memorial against fascism and militarism, guarded by two armoured soldiers).


nice buildings for the crown princes.




the berlin cathedral. the prussian kings wanted to be the lutheran counterpart of the pope in rome. therefore they built this church.


me at a art market stand.


old national gallery, built as a copy of a greek temple.


saint mary's church and television tower at alexanderplatz.


i really enjoyed this city walk.

3*euro loves you mommy and the world 

hello mommy.

today we started at one of my hosts houses - yes, checking the roof after the winter.






again: spectacular views of the city.


and a loud shout into the chimney! hehehehe!




later this afternoon we had some time to go to a large castle: charlottenburg castle.


this king here built it as his summer residence. frederick the great let his wife live here, while he resided at sanssouci (without sorrow) in potsdam. he did not like women.


oooops, why hasn't this guy any trousers? chilly ...


the prussian eagle looks a bit angry, doesn't he?


and this is frederick the second, a great king of prussia.


in the late evening we picked up a friend of my host from the airport.


mommy, what is ulan bator?




tegel airport will be closed in june this year when the new international airport south of berlin will be opened.


but now, you can fly to many many targets in germany, europe, and the whole world.


hey, and this is where i would like to go. may i?

3*euro loves the whole world and you also, mommy 

hello mommy!

today another toyvoyager arrived: joesy, a little monkey girl. eah, girls ... 


the two strong big elephants brought in a yellow box.


we opened it. hm, did they open my box with forks and knives too?


me and little teddy had the a first look. "hellooooo? somebody in here?" i saw the big smile of a handsome girl.


then we opened the box. everybody wanted to see who was coming in. and? she was complaining that she was given a lamp but nothing to read. hey! i told her i was given some sweets, but NO lamp at all. GIRLS!!! 


anyway, we welcomed her very kindly and talked and talked the whole night and ate what was left of the sweets.

mommy, have i told that i love the whole world and miss you (a little bit)?
