From Europe to Africa in America - A Sisters' Expedition

[Flossbolna]

Okay Katharina, admit it.......you knew the little sister was going to get blamed SOMEHOW!!!!
Actually, I was fairly certain from the picture this was turkey, but since I wasn't invited to join along and know firsthand..........
Actually, not a bad idea if I'm out of points and need to make a quickie trip back to Disney for a DISmeet or something. I will have APs that are good up until around Christmas 2011, so I do have a built in excuse to get my money's worth.........

That's what little sisters are for! No, not really, I really love my little sister and would not trade her in for anything else! I was just really dissappointed when she was born because I was under the impression that I would get a new friend to play with, but she wasn't very useful for that when she was a new-born baby...

It does look more like turkey... Next time we will ask you along as trukey-ham-referee. So you can get the blame next time!

Don't know how I missed it - but just spent the last 2 days reading your TR. I cheated and only went through the links. Now that I am caught up I should be able to follow along in real time.

I am happy to have you as a new reader and am looking forward to having you along for the second half of our trip!! Don't worry about using the links, that's what they are for!! I use them on other TRs as well and am always grateful for them.

Port Orleans is such a beautiful resort....I love all of the detail and although I have never stayed there it feels like I would love being there. I almost stayed there a Saturday night in October to save points but I didn't feel like moving around so my laziness won out I always forget there is the FQ and Riverside hence my guess
The laundry train cracks me up It is a never ending job!!
Hope you get into the "system" soon so you can start making your first trip home reservation!!

Tracy

I can understand not wanting to move very much! I had considered on previous trips to save money by staying the first night at Pop or so before moving to a AKL since I always arrive late in the evening. But I never did that because I did not want to move and because I wanted my first morning at WDW not to include packing etc, I rather want to start my vacation proper!

Ok Marv, that how I got started. It is a wonderful side effect though.

I guess I am pretty safe if I buy an AP - My flight costs (and the flight duration) are rather prohibitive regarding spontaneous short trips...

 

[Flossbolna]

Thanks so much Magdalene! Hope the rest of your week, and weekend are the best! And tell Katharina we haven't forgotten.......dirndl, dirndl, dirndl.........

Thanks! I had a lovely weekend with a friend in Munich... will post about it shortly.

I haven't forgotten.... but there is still so much to do in our new flat and so littel time and the thing is, I need not only myself and the drindl but also a photographer... as I have been away the last weekends and my private photographer is really tired after work, it is not so easy to find time between sorting through books and installing lamps.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

Well, if you haven't managed to get it done by January 6th, I will be happy to volunteer as photographer!

Thank you for the Thanksgiving Wishes, Magdalene & Katharina!

Today is all about cooking & eating; tomorrow is all about shopping!!!

Hi Laura, great to see you posting! I hope you had a great weekend!!

Thanks, ladies! Enjoy your day too (but I bet we have better food today than you do!)

Hi Elin!! I am certain that your food was way better than the salad I had for lunch at work...

I know I started reading this way back when but somehow fallen off the bandwagon. I'm going to start from the beginning and get all caught up.

Hi and back Jen!! I thought I remembered you posting on my TR... But I guess it is all my fault that you stopped reading it since it takes me ages to get through this trip... Great to have you back!

Thank you Magdalene and Katharina for your well wishes!

You are welcome Wendy! I hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend!

 

[Flossbolna]

Hi everyone, I just spent a weekend in Munich with my best friend. We have travelled quite a lot together and always had great fun. But in the last few years we just never found time for it. So we decided to go on a weekend break to Munich. Munich is only 150 miles from Nuremberg, but we decided to make a mini-vacation out of it. I brought back some pictures for you, I hope you enjoy them. A new WDW update will come really soon as well!

We stayed in a hotel which belongs to a new chain called "Motel One" which has rather basic rooms for a good price (small, no frills) and with a rather sleek design:

And this was the "open fire" in the lobby:

We walked through the pedastrian streets (where most of the shopping is) in the city center, here you can see one of the towers of the "Cathedral of our Dear Lady" which in Munich is only called Frauenkirche. The towers are very visible, also because due to a city ordinance, no building in the city center may be taller than these towers:

We came across a christmas market in the Marienplatz (St Mary's Square - the informed reader will by now recognize that Munich is a very Catholic city), you can see the city hall in the background, which has a Glockenspiel in its tower:

You can buy chocolate covered fruits here (pineapple, grapes and apples in this pic):

these chocolate covered fruits are typical for German fairs and christmas markets.

Also all kind of ornaments (but NO pickles, I checked, instead they had race cars, frogs and pigs amongst others):

One of the bog departmentstores had plush animals (Germany's most famous brand for plush animals is Steiff) which were moving in their windows:

This is the entrance to one of the yards of the Bavarian kings' city castle in Munich, they have another market in there now:

We also ventured into Munich's best fine food store called Dallmayr where these ladies were selling coffee:

The big "vases" are for the coffee beans. They are very famous in Germany because Dallmayr is also a coffee brand and their TV commercials show those "vases". In case you are interested, HERE is the current example...

Also in the Dallmayr shop I took this pic especially for Wendy, it is their Stollen display:

The next view is of Ludwigstraße, a boulevard with neo-renaissance buildings:

The view point is from the Ludwig-Maximilians-University, which is the university where I got my degree from.

If you walk towards the city center from here, you get to Odeonsplatz with the Feldherrnhalle (Field Marshall's Hall):

and the Theatinerkirche:

In 1923 Hitler tried to overthrow the German government (according to Wikipedia, this unsuccessful attempt is called the Beer Hall Putsch or Munich Putsch in English, it started in Munich in a beer hall) and one march was stopped right before the Feldherrnhalle. Therefore after Hitler was finally successful to get to power in 1933 he ordered that a special memorial be placed in the Feldherrnhalle. There was police stationed there to watch that everyone passing in front of it would have to greet this memorial by using the "Hitler salute" (the one you know from films, right arm straight ahead). People who did not want to do this, avoided this by using a tiny alley behind the Feldherrnhalle if they had to pass it. The little alley is still known in Munich for this... It was one of the few ways of passive resistance against the Nazis.

And finally a picture of the lovely coffee we had for breakfast today, with silver spoons and cream in a silver pot:

Next: Chapter 25: Even more resort exploring – and a dinner! Part 1

I always enjoy your history lessons and seeing pictures of all those beautiful, old buildings.

I think it's amazing how you can just get up and go to Munich for the weekend. That coffee you had looks amazing. Much better than Disney coffee I presume? I love all the German monuments and history you've shared. One day I will visit Germany. I am fascinated by the history because it involves so much. I hope your family was never affected too terribly during WWII.

 

[tiggrbaby]

What a lovely weekend! Thanks for sharing!

 

[howlongtildisney]

I've been lurking on your TR for some time, but wanted to thank you for all the Munich pictures! I'll be there a week from Tuesday until a week from Saturday. I'd love recommendations on things to do or places to eat. The market looks so dear!

 

[PNO4TE]

What a delightful weekend you had, Magdalene! Your pictures (and the history lesson that went with them) were a nice way to wake up this morning! Thanks.

Well, I think it is amazing how you can just go to Washington DC for a DISmeet!

The coffee was really great! I am trying to have less milk with my coffee and if it is just the coffee, it really matters much more that it tastes good!

German history is really interesting, not only WW II. I had history in school as one of my two "major subjects" during the last two years - we got to chose two subjects that we could specialize in, I took history and chemistry. We had a great teacher and I loved my history classes.

Didn't you mention once that Bubba and your father speak German?? Or am I imagining things?

What a lovely weekend! Thanks for sharing!

I am glad that you enjoyed the pictures!

Hi and Great to see you posting! Munich is a great city to visit. I guess you already know a bit about the main sights? What are you interested in? What kind of restaurants do you want to try?

Two that are typical for Munich and which I think are quite good are: The "Weißes Bräuhaus" http://www.weisses-brauhaus.de/ where they have some really traditional dishes (which aren't that common any more) like sour prok liver They have less exotic food as well (Schnitzel and such), but I think it is a great place for seeing what a Munich beer hall used to be like.

The other, which is traditional as well, but more upscale is the "Spatenhaus an der Oper" http://www.kuffler.de/en/muenchen/spatenhaus/index.php which is just opposite the State Opera House.

With regard to sights, I think the Deutsches Museum is something not to miss! The Residenz (the city castle of the Bavarian kings) is pretty impressive, but Nymphenburg castle (their summer castle) is more beautiful.

What a delightful weekend you had, Magdalene! Your pictures (and the history lesson that went with them) were a nice way to wake up this morning! Thanks.

Hi Elin, the weekend really was a very nice treat! I am glad, you enjoyed the pics (and the history lesson!)

 

[jenbear123]

Well, I think it is amazing how you can just go to Washington DC for a DISmeet!

You have a point there.

The coffee was really great! I am trying to have less milk with my coffee and if it is just the coffee, it really matters much more that it tastes good!

Most definitely. Not sure if you've tried Starbucks coffee (I think you may have mentioned you did and said it was rather weak) but I find it too strong and can't drink it black. Then again, I'm not a big fan of bitter so the more sugar and milk in my coffee the better! I wish I could enjoy it without all that stuff in it but my sweet tooth gets in the way.

German history is really interesting, not only WW II. I had history in school as one of my two "major subjects" during the last two years - we got to chose two subjects that we could specialize in, I took history and chemistry. We had a great teacher and I loved my history classes.

Looking back, I wish I had taken more interest in history class. There's so much that I missed out on (or didn't pay attention to ) So please keep up with all the Germany photos and any weekend/day trips you take!

Didn't you mention once that Bubba and your father speak German?? Or am I imagining things?

You aren't imaging things My dad and Bubba do speak some German. My dad seems to remember more than Bubba. She seems to have slipped a bit being out of practice. Maybe in a few years we'll go back to Germany to visit. I would love to see your country!

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Munich looks beautiful! This has only deepened my desire to see Europe someday. Thank you so much for sharing the pictures!

By the way, I'm holding my hands up near the picture of the "open fire", but I don't feel any warmer.

You know we won't give up until we see the dirndl right? Ok everyone chant with me DIRNDL DIRNDL DIRNDL....

Thanks! I had a lovely weekend with a friend in Munich... will post about it shortly.

I will comment shortly on this. Looks like a fabulous time.

Well, if you haven't managed to get it done by January 6th, I will be happy to volunteer as photographer!

Thank you Magdalene for volunteering DIRNDL DIRNDL DIRNDL

You are welcome Wendy! I hope you had a wonderful holiday
weekend!

We did have a great weekend thanks.

Awesome pix and the German History lesson is just inspiring !!Thank you!! It is good to hear that the German people found ways to passively resist!!!

I'm sorry but fruit and chocolate aren't meant to be together.

Also all kind of ornaments (but NO pickles, I checked, instead they had race cars, frogs and pigs amongst others):

I love those types of ornaments! NO PICKLES? Tell if this is true, do Germans hide the pickle ornament on the Christmas tree and the first one to find it opens the first present? We do that here, well at least in our house, mostly we do this for the kids. And do you open presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?

One of the bog departmentstores had plush animals (Germany's most famous brand for plush animals is Steiff) which were moving in their windows:

I bought a Steiff bear while there! I know I could have bought one here in the US but I wanted one from Germany.

This is the entrance to one of the yards of the Bavarian kings' city castle in Munich, they have another market in there now:

This reminds me of our Foldgers coffee commercials here! Is it good coffee?

Also in the Dallmayr shop I took this pic especially for Wendy, it is their Stollen display:

10 million THANK YOU'S for the this picture! They all look so yummy! I'd like to try them all please!

The next view is of Ludwigstraße, a boulevard with neo-renaissance buildings:

Oh thanks for the history! I'll make sure I show this to Dave! He'll love it! Once again love the architechture!

And finally a picture of the lovely coffee we had for breakfast today, with silver spoons and cream in a silver pot:

This looks soooooo goooood! I love coffee, only with cream though no sugar. What is that layered whippy thing in the picture that looks good to!

 

[Flossbolna]

You aren't imaging things My dad and Bubba do speak some German. My dad seems to remember more than Bubba. She seems to have slipped a bit being out of practice. Maybe in a few years we'll go back to Germany to visit. I would love to see your country!

And I hope you will get in touch when you come to visit! I would love another German DISmeet!

Munich looks beautiful! This has only deepened my desire to see Europe someday. Thank you so much for sharing the pictures!

I am sure you will make it to Europe some day, it is not nearly as difficult as a lot of people seem to think. Of course the cost for the airfare is not that cheap, but otherwise, I think most of Europe is easy to travel around.

By the way, I'm holding my hands up near the picture of the "open fire", but I don't feel any warmer.

Well, I am sorry it did not work for you... We had a similar open fire on the wall of our bedroom and I regularly was standing in front of it to warm up!

You know we won't give up until we see the dirndl right? Ok everyone chant with me DIRNDL DIRNDL DIRNDL....

Poor Katharina!

Awesome pix and the German History lesson is just inspiring !!Thank you!! It is good to hear that the German people found ways to passively resist!!!

Thanks Rosie! I am always glad that there were Germans who did not approve of Hitler and the Nazis.

 

[Flossbolna]

Looks like a nice hotel was it near the train station?

One U-Bahn stop from the train station, at the Sendlinger Tor. Which is a much nicer area. We really liked the location and it was perfect for a weekend, but I would not stay longer there.

Love all the architechture! I still want to come to Germany for Christmas. I would love to go to all the Christmas markets.

That would be quite a tour! Dresden also has one of the oldest markets.

I love those types of ornaments! NO PICKLES? Tell if this is true, do Germans hide the pickle ornament on the Christmas tree and the first one to find it opens the first present? We do that here, well at least in our house, mostly we do this for the kids. And do you open presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?

Germans in Germany don't have pickles on their Christmas trees. I read an article a few years ago about how Americans think that this is a German tradition. A historian actually did a lot of research and did not found any evidence that this tradition ever existed in Germany. One idea was originally that it came from one specific village and travelled to the US with some immigrants and then got mulitplied in the US. But now the most likely theory is that this was a marketing campaign invented by a German christmas ornament producer at the end of the 19th century... Apparently it is more a tradition amongst Americans with German heritage...

Actually, our family used to have a Christmas pickle. But this one Katharina and I bought as a Christmas present for our father one year in a shop which was mainly catering to American tourists. We bought it because we thought it was so silly! But we put it on the tree every year until one year my father when decorating the tree decided that he had to adjust the already decorated tree in its stand and in the whole process managed to destroy quite few of the glass ornaments when the tree fell down on its side...

I bought a Steiff bear while there! I know I could have bought one here in the US but I wanted one from Germany.

Are they cheaper here in Germany? I love the Steiff animals, I had a bear and a dolphin when I was a kid.

This reminds me of our Foldgers coffee commercials here! Is it good coffee?

It is a premium brand, but I don't like the taste of it, it is very sour.

10 million THANK YOU'S for the this picture! They all look so yummy! I'd like to try them all please!

I still need to send you the recipe! Btw, I found out that the form and colour of the stollen (long and white) is supposed to look like baby Jesus wrapped in clothes. I am not so sure what to think about my ancestors who invented this....

This looks soooooo goooood! I love coffee, only with cream though no sugar. What is that layered whippy thing in the picture that looks good to!

It was really good coffee! The layered thing is called Latte Macchiato, which is Italian for "stained milk". It is more common than a caffe latte here in Germany. It has lots of froth and is made by pouring the espresso into the milk instead of the other way around. It is also more milky...

 

[Flossbolna]

We took a bus to AK and this seemed to take forever. To be honest, we were not really enjoying having to circle all of POR before we got on the road... At AK we transferred to an AKL bus and finally got back to our room – which again was not made up yet... I am not so sure what we did then, I think I might have called housekeeping...

But today it wasn't so bad, because we had the next event lined up: we were going to go on the Culinary Tour which is offered for everyone at Boma and Jiko every afternoon free of charge! I think it is a wonderful feature of AKL and had only experienced it once and then I only got the Boma part. There were 8 people on our tour, three of them were children. Both CMs from Boma and Jiko made a point of engaging the children and since the tour does not take too long, I think it is a tour where you can take your children along, even though it is more adult focused in nature.

I think at some point during the tour I took this picture:

These are the telephones in the area in front of Boma and Jiko:

And this statue is at the entrance of Boma:

The CM from Boma was very funny. He was from Namibia and he was very impressed that I had been to Namibia. It was great to talk about his home country, which is incredibly beautiful! We got some explanation about the design and concept of Boma and about the dishes. We also got to taste a soup and we got one zebra dome each. Zebra domes are the signature desert of Boma and they are dome shaped mousse cakes with an Amarula mousse. They contain some alcohol. On the AKL Jambo thread, where I am a regular (even though I post a bit too little there at the moment), most people love those zebra domes. And I never really enjoyed them, they were way too sweet for my taste. But this time, I really liked it: It was very cold because it was put out just when we arrived. It is much better that way!! So, my tip would be if you want to try a zebra dome without paying for it: go on the Culinary Tour!!

We were then handed over to a CM from Jiko who explained the design of this restaurant. Jiko is very beautiful in my opinion and has lots of meaningful elements. And it has a hidden Mickey – which Katharina was first to spot!! The CM was very new and a bit insecure, but very sweet and polite. Here they had set up plates for every party with three breads and three dips – actually a small portion of one of the Jiko appetizers. It was still a generous portion for a taste and we really enjoyed trying all this food!

I can only recommend the Culinary Tour, it is one of WDW's hidden gems!!

After our tour we just hang out in our room. Today was our relaxing day with no further activities. That's why we also had dinner scheduled for one of AKL's restaurants – we would return to Boma later on. But first we spent some time doing laundry, reading, getting up to date with TR notes (I must say, taking good notes was quite some work, but I am so glad that I did it!!) and doing some “accounting” we were actually charging everything to the room and then would calculate who would have to pay what. This way we could split the costs for meals and I also could then in the end settle my part of the balance by paying cash. I have a credit card which charges no fees for cash withdrawals abroad and therefore paying cash is much better for me than using the credit card directly because that would cost a 2% fee for using it in a foreign currency....

Continued in Part 2 here

 

[Flossbolna]

We were surprised how soon it was time to head down to Boma again... Our ADR was for 7:10 pm

During the meal I was actually very brave in the interest of all food porn lovers and took my camera to take pictures of the offerings at Boma. I can tell you that the embarrassment factor of this is much higher than just taking pictures of your plates!!

Let's start with the salads:

this was the best – a watercress and heart of palm salad:

Some more:

Some bread:

The soups:

Salmon in banana leaf and chicken:

sausages:

Couscous on the right, don't know what's on the left:

rice, corn and fufu:

Bobotie:

Dessert:

the famous Zebra Dome:

and a strange dessert called cassava cake:

in order to remember what I had, I also took pictures of my plates:

I think Katharina was relieved that she did not have to wait with eating until I had taken a picture!!

Katharina once again had a chef to take care of her. The chef took her through the buffet and told her what she could eat and if I remember correctly, there once again wasn't much she could eat and they did not really offer to make her anything special either. I think she still found enough food to be full.

I really don’t remember any details, but I know I found some stuff I really really liked, so it didn’t matter that I could not chose from such a broad variety. The notes say I liked the sausages and striploin, I remember I liked the fufu. And I obviously got some special dessert: chocolate icecram, which I liked. Since then I was at an African restaurant with a friend of mine who lived in South Africa for a while. She explained a lot of the food to em, like how to eat pap. I would love to visit Boma again now.

I alwas really enjoy the Boma salads, my favourite this time was the watercress salad, but I also love the carrot, cocos and raisin salad. The soups were very salty this time unfortunately. I really loved the striploin and had some Boma mustard with it which was delicious, sharp but sweet!

The desserts were all very sweet, but I really enjoyed the caramel cheesecake and the peanut butter mousse. The coffee tarte was rather dry and tropical panna cotta was too jelly like, but had a nice fruity taste.

After dinner – we were in Boma for quite some time, our receipt is from 8:41 pm we just rolled ourselves back to our room and fell into bed!

I haven't forgotten.... but there is still so much to do in our new flat and so littel time and the thing is, I need not only myself and the drindl but also a photographer...

So is it dirndl, or drindl???

That's what little sisters are for! No, not really, I really love my little sister and would not trade her in for anything else! I was just really dissappointed when she was born because I was under the impression that I would get a new friend to play with, but she wasn't very useful for that when she was a new-born baby...

Being the baby, I guess I was the disappointment. (No comments Rosie!)

It does look more like turkey... Next time we will ask you along as trukey-ham-referee. So you can get the blame next time!

Love to join in on the fun, especially if I get to sample the food to make sure I know which one it is!!!

Well, if you haven't managed to get it done by January 6th, I will be happy to volunteer as photographer!

Something in your tone makes me think you would be too happy to take care of this and share with the rest of us!

Love the Munich update! The architecture is beautiful. The chocolate covered fruit looks so yummy, and the ornaments are really nice!

We love Boma! Looks like we need to go back soon. I saw some new items in your pictures that look really delicious! I love the wood fired meats, and you can always make a really nice dessert plate to end your meal on a sweet note!

 

[glennbo123]

Magdalene, thanks for the Munich pictures. I especially liked the picture of the coffees. I'd like to just reach out and drink one of those.

Culinary Tour? I had to call Judy over to the PC and show her this...we had no idea there was such a thing! Well, you gave me something for next time.

Thanks for enduring the embarrassment and providing us with Boma buffet pictures. You are a dedicated DISer, through and through. I think my favorite dessert might be that chocolate mousse cup with the striped stick on top. Mmmmmmm.
