Back to Work in Bremen, Germany

Was offered a job at ArcelorMittal in Bremen so took a Dulles 744 to Frankfurt and
drove a C3 to an Air BnB apartment near the plant.  The job is without problems and
the technical people are very cooperative (so far).
 
Spotted a Gold Car in the rental car area but they did not give me the
keys to it.  (Rather a little while French Citroen.)

Planning to take back some German Lowensenf mustard, the family favorite.  
Amaya wants some Kinder Eggs and a pony of some kind.  Not sure I will
take the Kinder Eggs back though - we keep hearing that they are not
technically allowed in the USA because of the small swallowable toy inside.
Probably not worth the risk.

Fun Summer at the Neighborhood Pool!

Amaya getting ready for her last race of the season.  She did really well
as one of the younger in her age group.  Papa has all of her swim ribbons
in the workshop right in front of her second story apartment.

She and Addy have been helping Papa work on coins - their books are
almost full - now working on Xmas Present books.  (As well as watching
for coins to finish up Panama's book.)

The Neighborhood Pool was great for the summer.  We sure enjoyed it.

Whats Wrong With This Picture?


Noted at the bookstore tonight that this is an odd coin book.
One of the books had the back cover put on upside down.
That is the way coins are made.  Only one book of many
had this problem - I suspect it was an error by the printer
and not an intentional "coin emulation joke."
