Oh, The Places You'll Go!: 03.11
http://tina-ouradventures.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Oh, The Places You'll Go! Our first year in Germany. It is hard to believe that we have already been here a year. And what a great year it has been! We made some new friends. We sampled German cuisine and quickly found our favorite resturants. We learned how to manage the German economy. We can shop, eat and see a movie! We went to the Gartenschau to see the tulips. Tina got a job at The Children's Learning Academy! We went to Trier. We took the kids to a fest in Kasierslautern. Wine fest in Bad Durkheim.

http://tina-ouradventures.blogspot.com/2011/11/christmas-market-season.html
Oh, The Places You'll Go! I love the holidays. The decorations, the smells, shopping for the perfect gift. This time of year is especially magical living in Europe. You'll be spoilt for choice, but one thing you can be certain of is an unforgettable experience when visiting some of the best Christmas Markets Germany has to offer in the cities and towns in the Rhineland/Pfalz region.

Oh, The Places You'll Go!
http://tina-ouradventures.blogspot.com/2011/11/one-of-best-things-about-living-in.html
Oh, The Places You'll Go! One of the best things about living in Germany is the fact that an afternoon outing can mean driving to another country. After dropping the boys off at work, we decided to head to Luxembourg to the American Cemetery. Fall is my favorite time of the year. So I loved the fact that the hour long drive was bursting with fall colors. With Veteran’s Day just a week away, it was an honor to stand where our fallen soldiers were laid to rest. We visited the grave of General Patton. Merry...

http://tina-ouradventures.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Oh, The Places You'll Go! After a good hike and following the markers to what we were hoping was a neat castle, we found this. Talk about a big let down! We found a rock. A rock full of history, but just a rock! Oh well, it was a great afternoon spent with the fam. We spent the afternoon exploring the gardens and enjoying the beautiful fall day. There were so many neat craved pumpkins. This little dude was my favorite. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Hero Arts Kit Card. The House of...

Oh, The Places You'll Go!: Burg Trifels
http://tina-ouradventures.blogspot.com/2011/07/burg-trifels.html
Oh, The Places You'll Go! Guess third time is a charm with this castle! We were finally able to explore Burg Trifels. We had driven to Annweiler twice before to be met with rain both times. The weather today was beautiful. The chapel served as the depository for the imperial crown jewels. Today the empire insignias are once again in the castle, but as copies as the originals have been in Vienna since the year 1800. After trying for so long to actually SEE your posts I happened to try tonight and viola!

Oh, The Places You'll Go!: First Christmas Markets of the Seaon
http://tina-ouradventures.blogspot.com/2011/11/when-you-live-in-europe-long-week-end.html
Oh, The Places You'll Go! First Christmas Markets of the Seaon. When you live in Europe, a long week-end can be a great time for a mini vacation. Our friends, the Reeves family, took full advantage and came for a visit. We were happy to have them! Not only did it mean a houseful for Thanksgiving dinner….it meant we would spend the rest of the week-end traveling. And travel we did! As we wondered from booth to booth, we caught a performace of the dancing Christmas trees. The guys were able to enjoy the se...

Oh, The Places You'll Go!: Mannheim in March
http://tina-ouradventures.blogspot.com/2011/07/mannheim-in-march.html
Oh, The Places You'll Go! Sometimes my travels are planned around Starbucks. Sad, I know! But I miss being able to hit the drive-thru for a Srawberry Frap on a whim. Mannheim is about an hour drive from our house. Not too far for a Starbucks run, right? One of the most famous icons of the Jugendstil (Arte-Nouveau style) in Germany, the water tower (and small park surrounding it) is a great place to sit and enjoy my frap. Rothenburd ob der Tauber.

http://tina-ouradventures.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Oh, The Places You'll Go! Christmas markets are a German tradition dating back hundreds of years. The markets feature hand-crafted items that can be purchased from vendors who have often crafted the items themselves. Each market has its own special charm unique to the community and region. It is amazing to experience the sights, smells and sounds of an Old World Christmas. And you just might find St. Nick in the crowd. . Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Oh, The Places You'll Go!: Castles along the Rhine
http://tina-ouradventures.blogspot.com/2011/07/castles-along-rhine.html
Oh, The Places You'll Go! Castles along the Rhine. You’re certain to feel as though you’re waltzing through a fairytale on this journey through the breathtaking landscape of terraced vineyards, old-world towns and historic, fairytale castles of the Rhine river valley. As we climbed the winding staircases, I wondered what amazing stories could be told by those who had lived here so many years ago. Korey, Aley and Doug at Rheinstein Castle. Have I mentioned how much I love living in Europe? Top 12 of 2012.
