A hut in the mountains

We just came back from a nice short trip to Austria. Toni celebrated his 30th birthday in the mountains, so we also used the trip for a small hike and a visit to the Bodensee on Sunday.


The party hut in the mountains...


...with this wonderful view!



A small hike next day, Lea is checking the path :)

It's one of these special moments...

...when you come home and meet a person at the front door, which is a neighbour you have never seen, but who moved in at the same time like you (1 year ago), plays the same instrument than you (Cello) and has the same name like you (Johannes). Unbelievable!

Some impressions from San Francisco

Here are some impressions from the San Francisco trip.


The famous cable cars


View down Lombard street towards Telegraph Hill (Poit tower)




Pier 39 with its famous sea lions


A photo from the 39th floor bar in the Marriott towers. You can see the bar and me reflected in the window and the panorama at the same time :)


Another shot of the panorama


Photo art: How to make a Jolle-"J" with a camera and a streetlamp


View from Twin Peaks towards the city center and the bay


University of San Francisco (USF) main building


Starting the bike tour at the Golden Gate brigde on Saturday


Later follwing old coast trails and roads




Muir beach, a small community north of San Francisco


Muir woods, home of the giant trees, the Coastal Redwoods, which are higher but not so massive like the Sequoias.


St. Pauli girl, the famous German beer (in America) ;)


A so called box car, the new trend in America. Will reach Europe as well, I assume


Typical American post boxes
