Witten, Germany - 27th September 2008
By: Apperveilchen
I was at a biker party! There were fireworks and after them one group of bikers left through the small alley we were standing in. The roar was amazing and a bit scary because they were so big and fast and in the dark I could only see the headlights and the outlines of the bikes and the leather people. I hid in the bag until it was over. Then I came out and admires the torches along the way and those the fireworks people used.

Messe Düsseldorf, Germany - 28th September 2008
By: Apperveilchen
Today was the first day of three different trade fairs in the 'Messe Düsseldorf. (Messe = the fair but also the building for it) They are called InterCool, InterMeat, InterMopro and hogatec. They are about gastronomy, hotels, foods, etc.
You can see me looking at different chair decorations and at a display of meats for Halloween.
The area is so big that the shuttle bus had several stops before we came to our parking place and we'd been there early. The LTU Arena is also in that area. The soccer club Fortuna Düsseldorf plays there.

Today I am going to travel to northern Germany. It's a good day to crawl into a warm and cosy envelope, because it's raining and windy and generally uncomfortable outside.

I safely arrived in northern Germany - but nobody was there! I decided to have a quick look around my new home and discovered Kamie's cup.
Finally Katrin and Cloudy came back home from their trip to Schwerin. Cloudy was a tired but I wanted to hear everything about Schwerin. Probably I'm going to go there next weekend, too!

Katrin's home, Germany - 7th October 2008
By: babyamy
This evening Cloudy and I helped Katrin to pack some packages. She has sold some books and cassettes on Ebay and now the money has arrived on her bank account. Here I am closing the first envelope and Cloudy is filling the second one. The work is done much faster when we help Katrin because she is very tired after her long working day and now we are going to bed quickly.

a walk in the park, Germany - 20th October 2008
By: babyamy
Today the weather was fine and Katrin took us on a walk through the local park. We discovered this funny grown tree.
The leaves were making funny sounds when we walked over them and Mousy Mouse and I played with them for a while.
This is the small pond in the park. There were also some ducks but they ran away when they heard us.

Archives Museum der Arbeit, Hamburg, Germany - 22nd October 2008
By: babyamy
Here were are again, but Katrin has changed her working place this week. Now she spending three months in the archives of the museum. The work is very intresting, there are old documents she is working with. She even has to wear gloves when she has to touch them to protect them. This is her working place where Katrin is scanning the documents.
The view out of the window: The "Zinnschmelze" is a restaurant / pub, a nice place to go after work or in the evening.
Finally we met this teddy. He's been living in the archivist's bureau for a long time and knows a lot about what's going on here. His storys were very exciting and Katrin decided that we should stay here and she takes us home tomorrow.

Katrin's home, Germany - 26th October 2008
By: babyamy
Katrin spent the weekend with her boyfriend, but Stutz and I had to stay at home. We got a great job from Katrin's mom: take care of the letters which arrived on Friday and Saturday. Katrin has started to order the first presents for Christmas on the internet and now the first ones arrived. As a little surprise there was also a postcard from London from postcrossing. Katrin was happy when she came back home and said, that we did a great job!
