Bakery delivery? What a fabulous country!

I was going to say the exact same thing! Mmm, I would be lining up like a Playmobil figure for bagels....

The ice cream march of the playmobils! How cute!

I wish I could have the bakery truck and the milk (and yogurt and egg) truck come to my house too.

You know, in Germany you can buy yarn as well ;-)
Next time you travel to the South of Germany (especially between Stuttgart and Munich), you could check out the factory outlets for Regia and for Schöller&Stahl - they're open for the public.

That is so cool! Have a great time. I hope that you get a lot of knitting done now that the GPs have taken over your little ones.

Willkommen! Too bad we can't meet up here:-(( Have fun hitting the LYS's:-)

Welcome to the "right" time zone :) guess we can check for your posts early now!

No progress on Sockapaloooza socks yet, but I have a cunning plan... just need to finish those olympics first.

Have fun in Germany!

I thought you were brave for traveling with your children. But no. You're even more brave for taking bathroom pictures! lol I'm usually too focused on the kids not touching anything to barely do anything else. "Don't TOUCH THAT!"

mmm...ice cream!

Glad to hear that you are there safe! Thos playmobile figures are hysterical!

hehehehhe.Ilove those playmobil figures!! And yes they do love their ice cream! I took a trip with my two oldest to the grandparents once.. (all in one country..) it was good..
Have fun!!

Where in Germany are you? I have family there too, near Hannover. We went to visit two years ago and will go again next summer. It's beautiful... and what a great experience for your boys.

Is your husband from Germany? Do your boys have an Oma and an Opa like my girls do?

Just a little nosy.. forgive me :)

Wilkommen in Deutschland....*urgh* Bei so nem Wetter auch. :p

Alison, you are supposed to bring yarn BACK from Germany! :-)

Yarn outlets and the baker delivers...Germany is a wonderful place.

LOVE the ice cream shot. Glad you got there safely. Were the socks a hit?

Hee hee - those play figures are great.

BAKERY DELIVERY? BAKERY DELIVERY!!!!!

I'm packing my bags now.

I just love that the bakery appears to be called "Heck". I can see the English advertising campaign now: "Our bakery beats the Heck out of the competition."

So fun! I am glad you all arrived safely! I wish I had the baker at my door now too! Have a great trip Alison! Oh, and check out my little placket neck pullover too!

I love the one with the Playmobils ;o)

Do your kids speak fluently German ?
Every time we go to France (once a year) my 3 year old daughter starts to speak in English with my parents but she switches very quickly in French , beacause my parents don't understand more than 3 words ;o)

Have a wonderfull stay with your In Laws !

The playmobils still have me laughing! I used to love playing with those. Enjoy your trip!

I'd love it if bakeries delivered. That's awesome!

Oh they have the most awesome desserts. I love the fruit torte mmmmm. Oh am I missing Germany. Have a wonderful time and definitely tell us all about your yarn buys.

wow, check out that bakery cart! i love europe.

Ahh Germany, How long was your flight? And are the boys good on the plane?

That's the only thing stopping us...the kids and that plane ride.

SO. JEALOUS.
And I love that the bakery truck comes from Heck. That's almost as good as buying Bimbo bread in Mexico.

Good to see that your plane trip with the boys went well. I grew up in Portugal and would go buy fresh bread every morning before school. There's nothing else like it...

You make international travel with preschool-aged twin boys look like a SNAP, Alison... and a fun snap, too!

:imagines a place with bread *and yarn* delivery trucks:

:swoons:

I love playmobil! Such fun stuff...mmm ice cream!

Alison.. i'm homesick.. and the girl that works next to me is heading over to Dusseldorf area there tonite too.. just for a few days.. but still i wanna go.. sob!! it has been way too long since i was there.. i think 1998 already.. kori has been there twice since with her omi.... have a wonderful time and bring back lots of yarn.. viel spaess! Karola

OMG! i can just smell the frische Brötchen all the way back here in ohio - have a wonderful visit and enjoy all the bread bread bread!!!!! (never met a german who did the no-carb thing)

Oh wow, that makes me both happy and sad. What a nice vacation to take, I do hope you have a wonderful time and enjoy the brotchen. :D

Love the line of figures for ice cream:) How appropriate that you wear your new German socks on your way to Germany? Have a good time with the in-laws!

How I miss Germany! My youngest was born there. Take lots of pictures to post so that I can take a walk down that memory lane. Have a great time, I'm sure you will!

Bakery delivery--wow! Have a great time!

sad as it sounds, i'm still voting for that group sock yarn trip.

One of my best friends as a child had Playmobil toys and we loved them. What memories :)
