Weekend in Germany

Last week Wednesday I flew back to Germany for a longer weekend for the baptism of my little niece! So Wednesday that week to this week Monday i spent in Cologne with my sister and brother in law and their two daughters and eventually my entire family and some friends! It was great seeing everyone after being away from home for 5 months and not seeing part of my family for even half a year! When I saw Nele, my older niece, she smiled such a big smile at me as if she had remembered me from half a year ago :) And Anna, my little baby niece, is just about to start smiling and they are both just very very sweeet! I really enjoyed my time in Cologne and it was quite hard to say good bye again for another 6 months after seeing them for only a few days.

It's good to be back in England anyway. This week has been exciting as it snowed quite a lot on Monday and Tuesday so that Tuesday was actually a snow day which meant a day off from work just because it was too dangerous to get on the streets and try to get to work and also most of the schools had a snow day and were closed as well. Yes, England goes crazy once it snowed more than 10 cm.... ;)

In the snow on the way home from work.

Chaos on the road due to an unusual lot of snowfall! We were trying (with success in the end) to maneuver our little team car through the narrow street...

By the way. When I was in Germany, wise as I am I went to a doctor (although I was feeling really well that day but just to get ckecked by a proper doctor) and she found some rest redness and swelling and gave me something against that and also something for if it started hurting again. So it did of course start to hurt again, I took that stuff and then everything was fine. Imagine what happens? I come back to England and it starts hurting again. I'm allergic against England I think. Also at the moment our office is freezing cold, just because the room we call our office is very big and the radiators we have obviously can't heat up that much of a room. But fortunately I have my best friend the german hot waterbottle which does an amazing job at keeping me warm wherever I am! :)

Now I'm looking forward to tomorrow cause I'm going to spend the day in Manchester with some german friends! And Anne and I decided on each buying a pair of these ultra hipp wellies everyone wears nowadays! :) We'll see what comes out of that!
