Welcome back!

welcome back. As always when you go away, I feel like I've had a little trip to Germany! Was hoping to make KS this week, but will have kiddos - lets chat when you get settled about a res day in Arlington?

Glad you all made it back safely and happily.

Doesn't that flight attendant know not to get between a boy and his Lazy Town?

A Trabbi! Gotta love 'em. Wonder how old that one was?

Can't get away from Lazy Town even across the world, huh? Is it in English even? (Although I find it hard to understand even in English.)

Welcome Home! I'm glad that you were able to share with us while you were on the road.
So, how much yarn & Legos came home with you this time?

Welcome back to the US; glad you guys got back safely!

Welcome back and thanks for the travelog. Maybe someone can explain the total weirdness of Lazytown to me sometime?? My kids watch it but it's really freaky!

Have I ever enjoyed your vacation stories and pictures! Lived in Bavaria while my husband did a short tour in the military there. I miss it so very much! Looking forward to joining the next sockapalooza!

Welcome home! Can't wait to hear all about your trip and how much yarn came with you and what knitting projects you were able to work on in Germany! Great to see you back!

Welcome home! Glad you're all back safe and sound.

Posted by: Jenn at August 3, 2006 3:58 PM

Good that you made it home save and sound. Thanks so much for all the impressions from Germany (I especially enoyed all the LEGO!) and Iceland. The snowy mountain you photographed is the entrance to the centre of the earth! (according to Jules Vernes, that is)

Welcome home! It's been hot over here on the east coast!

Posted by: krista at August 3, 2006 5:22 PM

I gotta go to Iceland! I had a friend go earlier this year that said it was an amazing place to visit! Glad you are all back safely and I'm excited to see you on Sat. :)

Is that Keflavick airport? My family had a layover there once on our way to Denmark. Good gift shops.

Posted by: Megan at August 3, 2006 8:20 PM

Wilkommen zuruck nach Hause! Hope to see you this Sunday 'round the Wil Wheaton Honorary Table.

Posted by: gabriella at August 3, 2006 11:33 PM
