Before flying home to SA,mom, Sofia and I decided to have dinner at Zurich airpot...we are not going to discuss the price...cause man...it is so bloody expensive...a glass of prosecco...100ml...Sfr 10.00....that is like R150....i mean rediciulous...and the SFr is almost the same as the € at the moment...but moving on....i had a Bratwurst (sausage) with a crispy Swiss roll and onion sauce and mom had a Cervelat (sausage) and gruyere cheese salad....both of us really enjoyed our meal...i miss Bratwurst as well as Cervelat.....so yummie....let me share some pics with you.....

Enough about food...why caue while we were in Radolfzell we actually did not go out very much..yes, we went for cappuccino and often for cake...well actually Zwtschgenkuchen....but not in the evening...we actually ate dinner at home...al fresco style....mozzarella...cold cuts...brezel...Nuessli- salat....was damn delicious....You might ask yourself...what is Nuessli-salat....that is the Swiss word...German it is Feldsalad....
Next five pics...random...one is the Schwalben birds sitting on the railing by lake Bodensee...waiting for our cake crumbles to fall on the floor so that they have something to eat....
The next one....autumn in Germany...every day we went for strolls...either in the city (car-free) or along the lake...beautiful...and Sofia absoloutely loved it...
Third..our beautiful daughter Sofia enjoying the winter.....our ice princess
Fourth, is the beautiful town of Radolfzell...just those old houses with the wood bulkheads...i love....
Lastly....the grave where my Opa and now Oma also are....the flowers which we organised...Oma chose a red urn and she had also already chosen the colours of the flowers....red and white...it was actually amazing to see how much she had organised before she passed away...

Another cruise in Western Caribbean

This is the second week....we started the journey in Tampa and this Tampa we decided to take Sofia to the aquarium...I was quite interested to see whether she would be fascinated with the fishes or not....and she was....certain ones...certain ones not too much....but she definitely enjoyed going there. The aquarium had 8 sections: Wetlands Trail, Journey to Madagascar, Bays & Beaches, No Bone Zone, Coral Reefs, Dragons Down Under, Ocean Commotion and Splash Pad. We visited all except for the Splash Pad (that is outside for the kids to play and it was closed at the moment). It was nice also because there were areas where you could touch the sting rays...I enjoyed that, Sofia did not want to touch them, and nor did Kim.

Sofia in the Jeep Kim and the Jeep Cherokee Friday night we had some Sushi take-aways because Sofia was jet lagged, and so were we, so we did not make it to a restaurant with her.  Saturday there was also quite a few admin things to get done...but it was a rainy day....it rained almost the whole day...so we got a bit wet, but it is warm rain......so never mind. We started off by driving past our new home (could not go inside as the current owners were packing up) and then we made our way to McKinney where we have a friend who has been so kind to receive and store all of our post,
