Hi everyone. Happy New Year! Hubby and I had a great time on the river cruise on the Rhine. But it was cold, wet, and miserable the whole time. No more winter travel to cold places for us. Our next trip is at the end of April. Berlin to Copenhagen. I'm glad to be home. ...

We were never allowed to stay up on New Years Eve but that's probably because mom & dad wanted alone time away from us 6 kids ! and I probably would have fallen asleep anyway. We really don't have many people who set off fireworks on NYE, I also only heard a few in the distance.

N Q, that sounds like a perfect NYE, doing exactly as you wished! We did manage to stay up. I failed in my efforts to persuade DH not to shoot fireworks off the deck, but got him to at least only do one or two of them. I don't like the home fireworks! Other than that, we flipped ...

Homely you and your sister's travel agreement sounds like my sister and her husbands agreement. She makes all of the arrangement while he researches where they should go and what sites that they should see and if he can center the locations around how many pubs they can visit, th...

I'm so glad, N Q, that you still drop in with some regularity to chat. I really do miss this little community and enjoy connecting with you again! I like your sister's beer style :-) My sister and I have an arrangement: I take care of all of the travel details and she does the r...

Homely one of my sisters and her husband went to Belgium maybe 8 years ago right before christmas and they also enjoyed trying out all of the beers but then whenever they go to Europe, they try out the beers of the regions they're in. I really hope your son stays safe, the fact t...

N Q, we did see some Christmas markets, but they do not make such a big deal about them in NL and Belgium as they do in Germany/Austria. They are mostly food and drink, with the odd crafts booth here and there. Very quiet, but very enjoyable. The most lovely one I saw was in Brug...

Homely that sounds like an enjoyable vacation,Europe during the christmas season. Did you get to any of the christmas markets ? That's too bad about your son, I sure hope he wasn't deployed to the Middle East or any other place with major conflicts ! Our big storm waited till aft...

Merry Christmas to you, as well, MD - so glad my worst suspicions about you were unfounded! Sounds as if you have moved from your lovely place up the hill since then - here's to new things in a new year. Cheers

MD - I remember that story about Viti tracking down Feral Orchid! Haven't seen FO in quite a while. I've theorized that there are folks who can no longer log on because the system is slowly dying, which means they can read our comments but not add anything in. If folks lost their...

Shame about Viti. I remember when she tracked down Feral Orchid and knocked on her door! She cycled to the village and walked round with a picture of Feral asking ....."Do you know this woman?" I wonder how Feral is getting on ..... she used to do mountains of pickles.
