Luckily this great city is only a hop, skip, and 3. 5 hours of driving away. We stayed in a great hotel right on the river with incredible views and really central to all the fun stuff. Our first night there we went to the Christkindlmarkt to see how close to the Christmas markets back in Germany it was. They had all the basic German stuff…wurst, cuckoo clocks, ornaments, etc. Before we moved to Michigan we bought a cuckoo clock in the Black Forest (where they originate from) for more than half of the cost they they charge here.
I read many great books as a child: The Betsy series, The Austin Family series, The Chronicles of Prydain, The Enchanted Forest series, Little Women, Secret Garden, Jane Eyre, Diamond in the Window, Song of the Lioness Quartet, Princess and the... We were an intensely book family. I also read a number of not so good books. Most of these were mass-produced series and extremely formulaic. They eventually come to own their own horses in most cases, they travel to exotic horse-related places, ride competitively, outsmart kidnappers, save horses from a forest fire (maybe. Lisa, or "Mary Sue" gets movie stars, handsome Italian men,"bad boy" ranch hands, and almost anything with a pulse to crush on her (she is like 11 or 12). Sarah and I still play a game where we try to name as many of these in order as we can. Nancy Drew: I didn't even really get into the original books, but I did read a lot of the later era ones, like one where Nancy and co. go to Arizona or New Mexico or something to solve a crime or where they have to join the Renaissance Festival as... Later in my life I read this amazing book that analyzes Nancy Drew from a Jungian perspective.
on the outbound trip and the Emirates one on the inbound. It also had power sockets, On a visit to Switzerland nine years ago I discovered that The Black Forest was not far from Basel. When I enquired about the possibility of going across, I was advised that a Swiss visa was not enough, I needed something called a Schengen visa. Eight years later, this Schengen thing cropped up again on my escapade in Croatia. So this year as part of my preparations for the German trip, the Schengen was the first visa I secured. After all that fuss nobody ever asked to see it. So it was in effect US$80 down the drain. I went in and out of France and Germany without anybody ever asking to see my passport, let alone my visa. I spotted a giant windmill One of my missions in Freiburg was to find the laboratory at Freiburg University where Hans Krebs discovered the ornithine cycle (that is a cycle of biochemical reactions through which mammals produce urea from ammonia). It was the first ever metabolic cycle to be elucidated. The original buildings are still there but unfortunately the biochemistry laboratories are now housed in a modern block. So I never found the original lab but spent time in a fascinating University museum.
