We are moving. It is becoming more real each day. As part of allowing myself to be a little sad, you will be sick of my random thoughts about this town that I love (if you aren't already sick of it:-)....We hope that the next move brings another adventure, but I do worry that all is down hill from here. The other night I was sitting with a couple of my friends (one English and one German) at a restaurant on the bridge. We sat outside and the photo above was our view as we chatted. I told them that we are "ruined for life", and they thought that was a funny saying. Who gets to live this life where you can chat with friends until late into the evening, enjoying good food and drink, and overlooking a view like this? Every single person we know here loves this town, appreciates it. and knows it is a gem. Usually, there is a negative in living somewhere (ie. too expensive, not enough to do, high crime, schools aren't good etc.) - I really can't think of a negative. It just seems like this little pocket of the world has been preserved to represent everything that I love. Life is good, life is fun, and life is simple here. O.K. I will stop now (until next time :-)) ... Thank you for listening and putting up with me as I grieve out loud :-)

| We had a nice little Easter. We had a cookout with some friends and had a really nice day. |
 |
| This is another reason we want to come back reincarnated as a German dog.... This little guy was quite comfy on the train on the way to the Nuremburg Zoo - oh the good life! This is perfectly acceptable because German dogs are trained - if I am not mistaken, they are required to go to dog school |
 |
| This might be the view of our next town... It is cute, but it isn't Bamberg :-( |
 |
| The Bier Gartens are all officially open now. We had a nice evening with a group of friends visiting several of Bamberg's best :-) This is taken just after Bryan and I raced (yes, literally raced :-)) each other on our bikes up the hill to the Wilde Rose Keller. Our friends had come to visit from another town, so they drove, but we biked. |

| This is the view from one of the Bier Gartens - Again - who gets to live like this? We really are ruined for life!!!! |
 |
| This is a random photo, but represents the simplicity of this town. Mia had a birthday party, and during a lull moment, one of her friends sat down, pulled out a ball of yarn from her jacket pocket and started hand knitting. Apparently all of the kids know how to do this - It is like we live in the 1970's - I love it!!! |
