Sara that reminds me when I came from Paris by train. The train stopped at the customs station between France and Germany. It is a very small station in a little mining town, Forbach, that is of absolutely no touristic interest (should I say it is ugly and in the middle of nowhere- ok that would come close;) )
An American girl opposite of me just asked: Is this Frankfurt station;)
:D
Some years ago I hired a young man from Arkansas to work for me. After he had been in Chicago for a while he told me he was thinking of taking some classes. I asked where and he said the college with the great gothic looking buildng. I hated to tell him it was a sewage treatment plant! (Didn't he smell it???)
Wow, those are some nifty digs!! Like T&P's Mom and Sara, I wouldn't mind vacationing there myself!:D Of course, another option would be going along with Randi and John on holiday!:D But then my picture wouldn't be on "the wall!: :p Be a good boy, Fister man and have fun all!
Juni and Pichu will be staying at home only with my sister and my brother :)
Tomorrow is the big day. In the afternoon I am supposed to take my passport with the visa (hopefully) :)
Vio make sure you tell us tomorrow how it went. Else I'll die. :eek: ;)
Ha ha ha, I thought the same when I read the subject line! LOL But this looks like a much nicer place! :)Quote:

Have fun all of you.:D

I got the visa! and I am coming on Friday. I have booked a ticket for Friday through Timisoara to Munchen. I will be there at 10:45 am!!! He-he-he!
Can't wait to see all of you!
Now back to work, if I want to come. I have some budget calculations to make, documents to translate, workplans to review. We will have a big meeting on Thursday (on my request, not on Friday :) ) and I have to get it all ready!
Whooooooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooo:D :D :D
Yeahhhhh Vio! :D We've all been waiting for this reply. :eek: We thought you'd make it. You'll be arriving before us. We're landing at 19.00 in Munich - will see you shortly after. :D
Fister will cope, he's been there before and it's actually the nicest place of them all. :) We'll make sure to take some pics when he arrives - plus the one on the wall. ;)
Now at 2:38am, I am done with the documents for the meeting on Thursday. Can you say I am working hard?
But I am glad everyone agreed to have the meeting on Thursday instead of Friday just for me, so I could go on my short vacation.
I can't wait to meet Barbara and Siegmar, Randi & John, and Sara & Don. And Filou and Tigris :D
Viorica, have you packed your camera??? :)
Hot Dog Vio!!!! See you on Friday.....
And to make it worse on myself, I just checked airfares. I could still get a flight leaving Thursday afternoon, connecting in Zurich and arriving in Munich at 10:15 am Friday for....get this....$782.26!!!! :( :( :(
But I'm SO excited for you guys!!! I can't wait to hear all about it!!! And now Vio is joining too - that is so exciting!!!
I sure hope you have good weather and get to see all the sites - along with the furry sites of Filou & Tigris. :D
Everyone have a beer for me, and if you are a wine drinker, sample some of the good German wines for me too. :D
On a side note, one of the more expensive flights ($2,971.00) stops over in Copenhagen on the way back. The airlines is called SAS - can't say as I've ever heard of them, but I'd do it just to be able to fly back with Randi & John for a ways. :D
You guys are going to have so much fun - I'll be at a Corvette event. :rolleyes: :D :D
One little problem. The sun will be shining and it should be rather warm. The temperature may reach the high 80s. 27-30°C.:( :( :(
I hope it won't be too hot.:rolleyes:
Debbie: The Scandinavian Airlines SAS has been founded in 1918 -so it is not exactly a newcomer;) Your flight sounds just fine! (Ok I have to ask Vio whether she shares her bed with you as I'm not sure to find a free one 2 days before start of Oktoberfest:p )
Ok, you all will notice that with any minute between now and Thursday I'm getting more and more NUTS:D
Wow! 30C, should I pack my summer dresses too? I am glad it's going to be warm, it was rather cold here the last week.
Debbie, I think $782.26 is VEEERY cheap. Mine is $390.00 for a much shorter flight - well, also the cheapest from here :) And I wouldn't mind sharing the bed with you if you decide to come ;) And I am not hitting on you! :D
I should bring a Moldovan wine so everybody found out anout it too. Not that is better than German, but it's good!
Nicole, my camera will be charged and I will have a small spare card. So, there will be pictures galore :)
Is it Friday yet?
