We've returned home to the Seattle area as of August 2008, what an experience we've had! Please contact us via the links on this page with any questions or comments you may have.

The Winnebago Sightseer 35J has been sold to a lovely Scottish couple, so it will continue its adventures in Europe.

Happy 3rd, Sophia!

New Year's Eve found us at Campingplatz Nord-West, just outside of Munich. We had arrived on the 30th, surprised to see the campgroung FULL! Most of the motorhomes were from Italy and they were laughing at our size. After seeing someone else disturb the office during "rest" time, I knocked and asked if we could stay in the only available spot, which was more of a turn out and was not intended to be a overnight spot. We were granted an OK and manuevered in. It was the last spot on the grounds. We were able to move to a normal spot on the 1st.

Our friends Aaron and Kerstin were gracious in researching and planning Sophia's birthday event. We decided to attend Circus Krone, a permanent circus in Munich.

This is a cool circus! I don't think there's a bad seat in the house. Though some of our neighbors may have thought so... by the time the show started, I had gone through the crowded aisles twice, with kids in tow. First was an attempt to get Megan to go down and try to ride and stand on the horse in the ring (all the kids were doing it but we were too late).
The second was to take Sophia down to be acknowledged for her birthday - they present all the birthday kids with a really nice certificate and small trinket (it was a frog key chain). She most remembers the frog key chain!

It was a long show - started at 3 and I think it was 5:30 before it was over. Kids overwhelmed and happy, we wandered back to Aaron and Kerstin's place to have cake.
