Engstrom Visitors~

We were excited to have more visitors!!!
Our friends the Larsen's and VanBlerkem's
were touring Germany, Austria and the
Czech Republic. They had time to come
to Bonn and spend a night and day with
our little family! We are so LUCKY!!

Eating dinner at Vapiano's.

Visiting after dinner at the Engstrom's.

Coreen and Kris ready to start a new day!

First thing in the morning it was off to the
markets and shops for breakfast!
Would you look at the size of that
white asparagus!!!

~Kris and David~
The tower in the background is
just above our home in Bad Godesberg.

~Coreen and Jim~

Now we are back home enjoying our
delicious German breakfast.


Okay, next stop is the Haribo Store
just around the corner....

Kris has found what she likes!

Kris, Lisa and Coreen posing with
the Haribo mascot.

Now that we have our candy stash we head to
Cologne to see the Cathedral.
Let's see that makes how many times for us...
We won't even count for the Larsen's
who used to live near here.
This was one of their many frequent stops
when they had visitors.

~Kris, Lisa, Coreen~


Cody on the arch.

Cody and David were "weekend buddies".
It didn't hurt that David bought Cody the most
humungous bag of Haribo candy EVER.
AND he kept buying Cody ice cream cones!
David's nicer than Jim....
I think Cody would have been David's buddy
no matter the goodies.

The group onto...

We drove along the Rheine and stopped at
various points of interest.
Here are pieces of the Berlin wall.
David, Kris, and "pop out" Cody...

~Cody, Coreen, Jim~

Okay, that's a little too big guys.

As we drove along the Rheine we got some
fun shots of castles and other great views.




Lisa and Kris above the Rheine River.

~Coreen, Kris~

That's our Lisa!!!

Too many ice cream bars for these big boys!!







Would you look at this humdinger of a motorcyle.

We stopped in a pretty little German city
to look for a good German meal.

~Dave and Lisa~

~Jim and Coreen~

What's Cody all about??

~Kris and Cody~

Hey!!!!!!!!!!
A Kathe Wohlfahrt store!
Oooooh let's go in....
Coreen was good and didn't buy ANYTHING.
Did you note that Jim???

We love the narrow streets in these German towns.

A fabulous German meal was enjoyed by all.

~Lisa, Kris, Coreen~
Until we meet again...
