This beer mug is another souvenir given by Kuya Obey. He brought it from his trip to Seegrotte, an underground facility in Hinterbrühl. It was used for the production of Heinkel He 162 jet fighters during World War II. If it’s worth mentioning, it was used as a set for the 1993 film version […]
On a spontaneous decision, hubby went to the US for a 3-week vacation. I get updates whenever he’s online on Skype or when he tags me on photos he uploads on Facebook. He’s been around California – in LA and San Francisco to Victoria, BC in Canada and to Nevada, particularly Las Vegas and Boulder […]
I have very seldom featured our Paris trip, which happened some years ago. I think it because I have very photos….rather good photos to share. This is one of the few souvenirs I got from Paris. The Moulin Rouge is easily recognizable at the base. Inside the dome is the Notre Dame and another […]
We’re having 8° around this region now. Suddenly, thoughts of the beach, of white sand and blue waters turned to just white landscape…snow. I’m still not ready for winter. As if fanning the flame that I am feeling, I’ve been seeing flights to Faro advertisements on blogs I visit… Fueled with curiosity, I ended up finding […]
I got this ceramic mug from Kuya Obey, my highschool senior who came to Vienna last winter for a scholarship. He’s already based in Japan and he was sent by Osaka University here. During his stay, he also visited parts of Europe, Amsterdam and other parts of Netherlands, Pompei/Naples in Italy, other cities in Austria […]
(my kids enjoying snow) Without any warning, our wonderful 15°-20° of autumn turned 8°! Brrr…I haven’t sported my ankle boots yet and the weather has gone low…boo! Well, I can use my knee-highs instead. Teehee! This sudden change made me look forward to what would be coming in the next months, winter = snow. Though […]
“Don’t forget the plutonium for your DeLorean!” were my last words to hubby as he went out of the house with his luggage…He was due to Kiev, 1.5-hour flight from Vienna. We have been joking the whole week about him getting, rather, stealing stuff as Dr.Emett Brown did in Back to the Future. We […]

Most of them have joined in the past and they attest to the benefits it has brought their blogs. Linky love, reader, new blogging friends and of course […]
(Getting lost in Nürnberg, August 2011) If my hobby is to take photos of every corner, windows and potted flowers, parked bicycles and musicians in the streets- my hubby takes photos of cars, all different models and colors. I think it is but natural since back home he has a car that he would […]
The weather is the same in Vienna, cold mornings and warm afternoons that will confuse you on deciding what to wear. The buildings are the same in Vienna, gothic and influenced by Roman architecture, for the city has been permanent seat of two Holy Roman Emperors and thus was also once the capital of the […]
