Signs

One of the funny things in Europe, at least to me, is the signage.  There are many, many signs - they are everywhere!

Here are some of my favorites!

I know how a bidet works but this one looks like an extra fun ride!


no boozing it up people!

no creepy hands ..

obviously no skateboarding - I just thought this skateboarder was extra cool!

Falk and I discussed this one and decided that when you are pregnant in Hungary they issue you a three-prong belt that signifies that you are not simply fat ....

we are watching you and we have guns!

this one was on a wall surrounding a castle area. I like how the dog is about to jump over the wall and the man is so contemplative.

no car poop
that old train does not look like it could go 100m.
no idea.
careful that the fire does not burn your ladder
striped-nose dogs only
creepy eyes on this lady
do not walk on the sharp sticks
duh!
nothing too special here, I just thought that the lady looked well dressed.
look out for wind!
well....
in case of fire, don't use the elevator - sure, but the picture is awesome!

 It is fun to visit other countries and see how they communicate, eat, and live!  I feel very blessed to have traveled to six great cities ~~ Aachen, Bruges, Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Prague.

We had such a wonderful time ~ we saw a lot and got to spend time with family and dear friends.  We missed our family (and our home), it is time to go home.

Love,

Sheri & Carsten

Philippines - Land Days

Image
We arrived in the Philippines after two bare-bones flights on Cebu Air. Anything over a paper cup of water cost money ... ugh.  We were pretty hungry by the time we got to Manila.  Some of you know that hungry Alsguths are not the most pleasant people!  We managed to avoid an international incident, but it was a close thing! Anyway, we woke up to a small problem, we had no Philippine Pesos (cash).  We had tried three different ATMs in Manila but had no luck.  Now we were at a hotel with no cash. We talked to the front desk when we checked in and they said they had an ATM.  This is what we found: Unplugged and un-helpful! I sent several panicked text messages to my "small gang" - they were super helpful.  Linda offered to wire us money, Joni said that it had sounded like an internet scam ... "I'm stuck in the Philippines and need you to send me cash!" LOL   We kept bugging the people at the desk, finally this nice lady changed $5 US for 250P.  This enabled us to

A minute about Kentucky

Image
Hello! After leaving Michigan we headed to Kentucky. Our plan: Mammoth Cave and Kentucky Bourbon! First up, Mammoth Cave. Long-time readers may recall our quick trip to MCNP in 2021. We did not have tickets for a tour so just did the short self-tour, getting a small look at this longest cave in the world. This time we planned ahead and bought tickets for the Extended Historical Tour. This tour took us deep into the cave, to Mammoth Dome, Fat-man's Misery, Tall-man's Agony and the Bottomless Pit. You can imagine, fat man was narrow and tall man short. It was fun! Many steps were needed to climb back out, over 500! One of our friends had recommended the Kentucky Bourbon trail.  We were so excited about this adventure we extended our trip to allow time for bourbon - without having to drive after the tastings. Heaven Hill (a large distillery) was our first stop. We saw their little museum, learned about the barrels that bourbon is put in and tasted five bourbons/whiskies.  The buil

Pre-departure Blog - Diving in the Far East

Image
 Hello! Everyone has that dream vacation in their head, the one that you have talked about and dreamed about for years saying, "we will do that when we retire".  On Sunday we leave on our "dream" vacation! I know, I know, we have been so many places and seen so many amazing things!  This is true and this vacation does not change that or diminish those trips in any way!  This trip is more about the "use it or lose it" philosophy.  It will be a long and physically demanding trip ... not one to be attempted in old-age.  [Whether we are in that category is a matter of what day it is and what we did the day before.... LOL.] Keep in mind that the POINT of this trip is DIVING.  We will actually not be doing much sight-seeing along the way.  We will have to come back to see this part of the world again ... and that certainly is in the long-range plan. Sunday we depart for Sydney.  The 17 hour flight will be the longest ever for me, and pretty close for Carsten. We
