Ger-sey Girl: Silk Painting: Erlangen
http://ger-seygirl.blogspot.com/2011/06/silk-painting-erlangen.html
Monday, June 13, 2011. One of my friends here in Germany, Jeanette, likes to teach Silk Painting. I had painted a scarf depicting Nuremberg last time and this time I wanted one that depicted the town we live in, Erlangen. I did a preliminary sketch of the layout and she came up with a final design. It depicts scenes from Erlangen with flowers from the botanical gardens in the background. Closeup of the Schlossgarten. The Schloss (Castle)was built in 1700 and is now used by the local University. The Bergk...

Thursday, May 20, 2010. What we have here. Is a failure to communicate! This is what happens when you take two people who's native language is not German and have them communicate in German. Today I went to the new Thai Take-out place down the street for lunch. One of their specials was "Nudeln Box To Go" and you can get that in Klein (small) or Groß (large). So I said to the lady at the counter "Klein Noodle Box To Go".and she said "blah blah blah Groß Nudeln Box To Go? Saturday, May 15, 2010. We starte...

http://ger-seygirl.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 19, 2012. Spring Break in the Florida Keys. This April we took a trip with our friends, The S's, to Islamorada Key in Florida. We flew into Miami and drove to our hotel (about one and a half hours with no traffic). We stayed at the Postcard Inn and had an oceanside room. ( http:/ holidayisle.com/. I think we were lucky to get a ground floor room so we could just walk out onto the beach. This was the view when you opened the door of our room:. We went snorkeling out of Robbie's Marina (.

Friday, June 25, 2010. You can just speak English if you want to. I was at the local Edeka (grocery store) and there was a guy giving out samples of wine. I tried some and wanted to say that it was "too dry". So I said "Zu draussen? He said "You can just speak English" an I then said "too dry for me". I should have said "zu trocken".

Ger-sey Girl: July 2010
http://ger-seygirl.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 9, 2010. My German teacher had told us about a medieval town called Dinkelsbühl that is supposed to like Rothenberg ob der Tauber but less touristy. If I haven't blogged about Rothenberg ob der Tauber (one of the cutest German towns ever) I will have to remedy that. Dinkelsbühl is still surrounded by the old medieval walls and towers and is very typical for a German town of the 15th to early 17th century. The walls have many towers. We had ice cream here. Style of wooden architecture. Pick-Y...
