Weekend-trip to Germany
Some time ago, I decided to fly to German over a weekend (4th to 6th July 2008) - once again. Two friends of mine (Chris and Bea) got married and so I booked a flight just 5 days before I left... So I left Thursday after work, arrived in germany Friday noon and left again Monday night which means I got back Monday night to Vancouver.
Me at the airport waiting to leave. Actually I didn't wait at all because I showed up only slightly more than 1 hour before departure :) Not that much for a international trip.
My parents at home: colour and b/w
I spent Friday night with our neighbours (Family Tork), unfortunately without a picture!
Before the wedding on Saturday I stopped by at Ratzen's place. Nice to see you all again!
The official ceremony of Chris and Bea's wedding.
After the official part was over: Bea and Chris Merz .
Bea and Chris with their "Trautzeugen".
They got picked up by a horse carriage.
Arriving at Burg Breuberg: That is where the main wedding celebration took place.
Late at night: Jasmin and me.

One of the acts was a fire show. It was great to watch!
Frauke and me just before we went to bed
The next day, Sunday, I first went to meet some old school friends for lunch. Ok, I made it for probably half an hour! But it was great seeing you all again even if just for a short period. Especially Ella who organized that. I think i haven#t seen her for a long time since she moved to South Africa.
My main aim for this day was watching my brother taking part in the Iron Man in Frankfurt. But before that I spent some time with Seppel's parents since they life next to Frankfurt (Offenbach)!
Unfortunately I missed my brother in his last running loop! SORRY Sebi!
After that I stopped by in Darmstadt and had a small come together at Inga's place - thanks for that! It was nice to see you all again!!!
Last but not least:
I had a great weekend and enjoyed every minute - probably not the long flight but everything else!
Thanks everybody to help me organizing all this and make everything possible.
