Journey to the Opposite Shore: when Dad came to town
http://theoppositeshore.blogspot.com/2012/08/when-dad-came-to-town.html
Journey to the Opposite Shore. Across the Atlantic Ocean and beyond. August 03, 2012. When Dad came to town. In May/June my dad came to visit. I know he's not a going-public kind of guy, but since this is a semi-anonymous blog frequented only by personal friends and family, I figured I should take the opportunity to show you what a great time we all had. First of all, I have to state for the record that my dad is an intrepid traveler. He's gung-ho and ready to go! We visited the Bach Haus where they have...

Journey to the Opposite Shore. Across the Atlantic Ocean and beyond. July 23, 2011. Save Caspian and Quincy! Two years ago we got Quincy at the pound and last year we found Caspian in the hope that the two could become good friends. It didn't turn out as well as we'd hoped and now that we're moving to Germany, we need to find two separate homes for them. They're phenomenally cute and friendly as all get out. Were it not for the fact that I'm neck deep in sorted/unsorted piles of stuff, wrapped up in movi...

Journey to the Opposite Shore. Across the Atlantic Ocean and beyond. November 09, 2008. We're writing like mad over here, simply like mad. And it's only a slight exaggeration to say that we're subsisting over the weekend on pastries (ok, I give in, I'll cook dinner! I haven't been this willing to get up early (4:30) in the morning in ages, Devin begs me to get her up at 5:15, and Merlin writes when she gets up at 6:30. The stats so far:. The Miraculous Journey Beyond. Season of the Dragons. Survivor of a...

Journey to the Opposite Shore: May 2011
http://theoppositeshore.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Journey to the Opposite Shore. Across the Atlantic Ocean and beyond. May 28, 2011. No need for a jump-start. This post is the electronic equivalent of stepping into the dark garage and pulling the lightbulb chain. There's the dusty, dropcloth-covered beater just waiting for some attention and TLC. Maybe after a few years of waiting, the ignition will turn on the first try. Meanwhile, there's need of some updating. Hold on to your hats, it'll be a wild ride! Labels: about this blog.

Journey to the Opposite Shore. Across the Atlantic Ocean and beyond. November 22, 2011. Let me backtrack a bit. So ever so long ago I mentioned that we were going on a field trip and then I let it drop and didn't share any of it with you. Let me remedy that selfishness and show you pictures of where we went, back before the leaves had started to turn all sorts of fantastic colors (that'll be a different post). Among the things the castle is famous for other than it's age:. 1211-1228 - St. Elizabeth o...

Journey to the Opposite Shore: February 2012
http://theoppositeshore.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Journey to the Opposite Shore. Across the Atlantic Ocean and beyond. February 09, 2012. We've had several day trips over the last few weekends, taking advantage of the snow up in the Harz Mountains since Göttingen's hardly gotten any. On the map, Göttingen is circled with yellow and the Harz mountain range is in red. The Harz are apparently northern Germany's prime ski location. Reproduced photo of NY canary sellers with German canaries. Dedicated to the Harz Roller breed at the Samson Mine. I was kind o...

Journey to the Opposite Shore. Across the Atlantic Ocean and beyond. March 25, 2012. Ok, I am on a roll here, getting the rest of the winter photos out into the world! The official pics of the White Second Week of February are here. Here's the view out back. And this is our giant house. We live in the top two floors and our awesome friend Katharina lives downstairs. I think the moon and the street lamp were talking to each other. He's been playing with his panoramic camera lately. Well, I found out this ...

Journey to the Opposite Shore. Across the Atlantic Ocean and beyond. December 31, 2008. December 26, 2008. December 23, 2008. We periodically join Dan's students when they have cultural activities. Some of the things we've done in the last month included hearing a demonstration of guzheng. To a free, downloadable guzheng song (track 5 of the ones listed) as blogger doesn't have an easy way to upload music into a blog post. Labels: daily life in China. December 22, 2008.

Journey to the Opposite Shore. Across the Atlantic Ocean and beyond. October 31, 2011. That's what a neighbor kid said to me as I opened the door tonight. We didn't have many kids but considering Halloween is an imported holiday, that's ok. We got a pumpkin and Devin and Merlin and friends (neighbors, Paula, Nora, and Hanna) carved it and then got dressed up and went all over the neighborhood. October 26, 2011. Anyway, rather than just talk about this, I figure it's good to show pictures. And Göttingen h...
