I'm off to Großräschen in a bit to go look at the setup of this open-air thingy.

However, if your first name is Christoph and you're bored, it's possible that the following article will be entertaining to you, even if only for a short while. Really though, your first name doesn't have to be Christoph...mostly you just have a passing familiarity ( Read more... )

There are a lot of children in Dresden, like very young children. Also pregnant women. That actually shouldn't be so much of a weird thing, but I'm not used to seeing lots of small children and lots of pregnant women in Germany. So very many baby strollers ( Read more... )

I'm in the mood for Top Ramen. Which is, upon reflection, a very stupid thing to be craving. I wish that I were craving a big steak or something. But, no. Top Ramen.
