New Home

Welcome on a trip around my new "home"!
My room is ok. Light and white. My bed - my favourite place ;)

Opposite the little one filled with necessity's and my wardrobe.

The ''funky" bathroom.


Living area. Remember it is staff accommodation...


We come together around the Telly like other generations around the fire...


Kitchen and trophy area ;)

Our house.
Left GM with family.
Right Dinah, Sarah and me upstairs. Donna and Aleem downstairs.
Space for eight in total.

Our garden...

Around the house...


Good view huh?

Or one can go by foot if one is up to it.
Takes between 1 - 2 hours.
Spiky Shoes recommended.

Forest and Mountains.


Walls around me

Banff and it's signature Mountain.

In die Ferne again.

We walked over to that little hut on top of that Summit.
Breathtaking.

Banff Gondola III

Yeah - I am sure I took some views twice. ;)
But Wow?!

Eisige Ewigkeit.

Endlessly on and on and on


And again.

My uncle Kalle lives in Berlin.
My Mom not too far away from that maybe another 300km...


Yay - it's me


Clowning abound in the Souvenir Shop...


Wow - Banff can be posh.


And soooooooo sexy!


Not so sexy - but reliable.
The only connection between Lake Louise and civilisation.
3 times a day.
Incomprehensible
