Inclined soccer field at the Olympia Park Munich

Saturday 30 of june we visited the Tollwood festival and afterwards we made a walk through the Olympic Parc and the Fan Mile were they showed Portugal winning against England. I do not have much time writing for my BLOG these days. Spending more time in front of TV watching the soccer games than at the PC. Often even to tired then to switch on the PC. Recently hard disk makes strange noises, probably my PC feels neglected?

Robin Hood and me

Its a long time  I wrote my last post here, but the nice and hot Munich summer has better to offer then sitting at home in front of my PC. Last week I had a business trip to Birmingham and I used the free time to visit also Nottingham, the city of Robin Hood. The foto is made by my colleague Antal at the Nottingham castle showing me with the Robin Hood statue.

Celebrating with 250.000 people and Pope Benedict XVI

Took quite some energy and time to convince Christiane to attend the holy pope mass this sunday morning in Munichs fair grounds Riem. 250.000 people were expected, by train, on foot and for example 2700 coaches  (unimaginable). I succeded convincing her and 6 o’clock in the morning alarm-clock interrupted our sweet dreams. First 2 hours (shower, tea, 15 min car ride and 30 minute pilgrim walk to the fair grounds) were like hell on earth (Christiane has such a bad morning mood when waking up early). I condemned me for asking her to come with me and wished I would have gone alone. But unbelievably It got a wonderful day watching the Pope Benedict XVI arriving with his Papamobil, touring the fair grounds and holding a 2 hour mass. Lot of sun and it got really hot after the foggy and cold morning. Despite the 250.000 people we arrived quite quick back to the car (after another 30 minute walk) and got home in time to start for a afternoon drive to Lake Starnberg, relaxing and sun-bathing in the September sun.

Memory Frame MF-8104 from Digital Spektrum

Hobby Photographer will love this. Instead of a stationery framed paper-photo, view lot of your shots on this small LCD based photoframe with wireless connection to your Home network and to (e.g.) your Flickr-albums. Will surely impress your visitors. But how expensive is it? I Assume too expensive, let’s see. Nevertheless if you have no idea for a X-Mas gift for me: I will like this.

Guess where is this in Bavaria?

On Flickr, every bigger city has it’s “Guess where xxx” photo group, where people guess about location of posted photos. Guess where is this in Bavaria? I think it’s easy.
