got up at 5:15, shower, finish packing, taxi came at 5:45...to the airport, quick check in (thank god for etix). lost my boarding pass, first coffee and first croissant (suprisingly tasty for a german one...). getting a new boarding pass from a very friendly air france crew member took only 2 mins. Met Phillip D.. flight on time, 3 seats for meself. second croissant and tea. drafty projectplan, and yes, doable  until sept. 15. landed on time, 4 of us in the taxi to the office, where I shot this one here. 1 more croissant plus one chocolote croissant plus 3 of these delicios lil cakes... introduction round, realised Kim is here. delighted to see her again, has been like 4 years??? Maurice and David here too, good :)new risk # 1: business ownership for this project changed. US guy really fast, only 5 mins. bravo :) now a good bit sales stuff instead of focusing on rqmts... yawn...

Last Sat I stopped over at Angelas house to bring her the promised 10 sausages. well, after a 45 mins chat, instead of driving to the Baltic Sea I ended up at Karstens gaff. he needed a hand mounting his new windshield, so I stayed. and after we played a few rounds of table tennis, where I didn't do too bad really... after he had a bottle of wine he even mentioned, that I could ride his bike for a day... I am sure he wont mention it again when sober ;)

got home at around 6:30, it was wet and rainy, and I thought "gosh, here goes another Tuesday without table tennis"... but surprise, Anni rang, and at around 8 we had Maria, Anni, Claudia, Carsten, Heschi, Tomson and Bali playing frantically...well, almost, Tom simply sipped away his http://www.bionade.de/ , cause he didn't feel well really. the rest enjoyed the http://www.jever.de/ . a rain shower in between then produced this fine rainbow...
playing cardgames after 10 lead to more drinks, and around midnight we "expulsed" the guys from our home. I slept like a baby ;)

A weekend in Warnemuende. was a late birthday pressie (2 nights stay in the http://parkhotel-seeblick.de/ ). The weather forecast was dreadful for late July (gusts up to 45 mph, showers and rain, 13 - 19 degrees centigrade. ).

as It turned out, the weather was much better than anticipated, I even burnt my face a bit. learnings? ALWAYS bring your sunblocker, no matter what the forecast says... :o)

We also met up with Astrid and her new BF. I think they're a great fit. fingers crossed...

weirdest moment? sun morning, breakfast in the hotel: picture a russian family with one german woman amongst them. they even bagged the breakfast rolls in some plastic bags... plus treating the waiters like they're a piece of crap seems common too...
