Trip to Germany - DIS Meet with Poohshoney

[tiggerlover]

This was the first DIS Meet for both Poohshoney and myself and a great meet it was. I have so many pictures that it is going to be a hard task to sort through them all to post here, so I will start with the participants, Poohshoney, my DH and DS and myself, (we met Pooshoney's DH on our last night in town, but sadly we have no pictures to share of Roland.)

Here we are up at the Heidelberg Castle with the city in the background. Carol is on the left and I am on the right.

DH, Tim, DS, Tyler and myself.

Now that we have photo's of the participants, I will start from the beginning. Carol was kind enough to find us a really nice guest haus to stay in while we visited and I am so glad we did because the place was beautiful. It was a former tobacco barn that was converted into a quaint bed and breakfast, the whole place had a warm and homey feel to it. We could not have chose a better place to stay if we did it ourselves.

This is a few views of our room.

Here are a few pictures from the village where we stayed and where Carol lives. Keep in mind with all of these pictures, the weather was not very favorable, but I think they came out okay just the same.

The next post will include pictures from our days in Mannheim and Heidelberg and I also have a few pictures of the snow we saw in Switzerland.

Thank you so much for sharing those with us! Your family is absolutely handsome and Carol was right -your DS is a heartbreaker!

Acn Carol-if you see this, when I come to visit one day, please give me the name of that guesthouse!

You made me so homesick Tigerlover......I have been there, have some friends and I'm also from Spain , so those things to me are very familiar. Heidelberg is a beautiful city , I want to visit Germany with my family sometime.
Thanks for sharing!

It's great to "see" both you and Poohshoney (I loved her trip reports). Your family is gorgeous and that village looks so charming.

Deutschland is wunderbar, nicht wahr?
Germany is wonderful. Isn't that so? I am planing on a trip there in July. Just hope that I am able to go. As you may know, I had to cancel my Dis Con trip because of my mother's health. She is getting better, but she is 85, so you never can tell.

 

[jldriscoll]

Wonderful pictures!!! If we're planning a Germany dis meet I better start saving!!! I wanna be there!

 

[tiggerlover]

Glad you all have enjoyed the pictures thus far. I am a little behind the 8 ball with the Rome trip, then Germany and being sick, I promise to get to them soon.

Yepod, here is another picture of Carol for you, sorry I don't have many as she doesn't fancy having her picture taken!

DS, DH and Carol at a nice cafe in Mannheim.

Myself, Carol and Carol's new buddy, Tyler at the Christmas market in Heidelberg.

More to come soon.

Seeing where I live up on the Dis is just weird! Great pictures though Debbi - I love your camera. And as I said, come back soon, please!
So who's next for a German Dis meet? The sooner/more the better! Start saving Jennifer - it's worth it. And maybe Debbi can come up for that one too! Where are you going to Carl?
