Games To Play On The Bus

Der Ampelmann

We have set ourselves in our big white empty hall a beautiful green traffic light man to paint. But it should be harder than expected. The problems began at the hardware store. First, wall color is totally unsuitable for large uniform surfaces with a brush to paint. But how should I get my hands on the wall, and finally I had to the former contours with color and then "paint" the rest. This is the color is not in the least. Others we have not found. Therefore decided we stick to the Green Man and with a paint roller to remove completely over it. The second problem was that the color that we had chosen to have only the 2-liter containers, was anything but there were also smaller. Now we have a lot of green paint lying around here ....


first step was, therefore, stick to the template to the wall and try it on a large scale the same. It went better than I thought. Even with the proportions I had no problems, although I had little overview of what I painted. This is on the wall not so simple.







some point it was Once done. Now had the full plan will be covered with wallpaper band, just as original. In particular, the curves were quite a problem because there had even come the scissors used to stick the tape to rounding.
When this madness work was over, however, things went further. Now it still had around with newspapers "stuffed" is to ensure that no paint comes to where they should not go.




hope now, anxious, wait ... and stress over it once, continue to hope that the paint does not run under it ... again rose. Allow to dry ... After a few hours then den Endanstrich. Die Farbe sieht gut aus... ist total gleichmäßig... nur hat das Klebeband gehalten???





Herausfinden konnte man es erst am nächsten Tag... Doch wer gedacht hat, das Klebeband geht einfach so wieder ab, hat sich getäuscht... es war wunderbar mit dem Farbanstrich verschmolzen. Man musste es ganz vorsichtig abziehen, an einigen Stellen sogar die Farbe mit dem Messer entfernen, so dass Klebeband keine Löcher in dem Anstrich hinterlässt... Und es hat natürlich nicht geklappt wie man wollte... das Ergebnis sah so aus:

Nun mussten wir uns was einfallen lassen. Ich habe die ganze Woche genutzt, einen Stift zu finden, der das überdecken könnte. Wir dachten erst an einen einfachen Buntstift, doch der war einfach zu schwach... Schließlich fand ich einen weißen flüssigen Edding... mit dem hat das ganz gut geklappt und nun ist nichts mehr von der überflüssigen Farbe zu sehen und die Linien sind aalglatt....
Nach endlosen korrigieren ist das Ampelmännchen das letzte Wochenende endlich fertig geworden...



Einfach toll!!!!

67 Chevelle Ss Sale Wis

Ein romantisches Silvester

…auf einem einsamen Berg, wir ganz allein mit unseren paar Raketen und einer Flasche Sekt. So hatten wir uns das vorgestellt und auch geplant.
Wir bekamen einen Tipp von Sebastians Vater, eine kleine Kirche etwas erhöht above the city on the outskirts of the city. There could be nice to see the fireworks and it should come up only a few people. Otherwise we should have some peace.
We participated in the note and went on 31.12.08, the clock approached midnight, to this mountain. A little below the church was a bench where we wanted to make ourselves comfortable. As we went up, some people went with us. On the bank were also quite a few. As we looked down, people came from all streets, people everywhere who ran in the direction of this mountain. Fortunately for us all gathered up at the church, but our room was always full. We are seeking a quiet corner and a spot on the mountainous Stück wo wir unsere Flasche für die Raketen platzieren konnten. Das Feuerwerk was dann auf der Brücke unten in der Stadt losging war wunderschön, die Knallraketen die von unten alle in unsere Richtung flogen nicht…
Ja, unser Plan ging nicht wirklich auf, es waren wohl tausendmal mehr Leute da als wir wollten… aber es war ein wunderschönes Feuerwerk und mit den Glocken der großen Kirche noch schöner… Wir waren zwar nicht allein aber trotzdem war es total schön, das Feuerwerk über der ganzen Stadt anzuschauen…

Auch wenn es etwas spät ist, wünsch ich allen noch ein erfolgreiches und gesundes Jahr 2009!!

How To Treat A Brazilian

Ein Urlaub und eine Bänderzerrung


Finally here's something to read over the holidays. We were finally breathe again after Christmas mountain air. Sebastian's parents first visit and relax for a few days in Bad Tolz. We had real good luck. Super apartment, finally beautiful weather, the sun has always shone. And we were finally able to walk again and climb mountains. But after the first walk, everything looked different. We came down by a beautiful snow-covered mountain. The road ran fairly long downhill ... and eventually began to hop Sebastian .... And broke his foot against a stone around ... At first it went, we came down and at least up to the station. But then, considerable pain, he could hardly stand, and arrived in Bad Tolz, he could go any more. He has supported all the way home to me and I'm almost broke together. I had already written off the holiday, and on the first day ... but Sebastian did not want to give up ... I did.

The next day there was indeed little better, but still we went to the orthopedist, you never know. It was time to turn and back on crutches again ... at least he took it in his hand. He had received a firm bandage, bandages and ointments, all that remains of the holiday still beautiful. And with the association he could even walk again. We went this day only one lap around the city. The next day we made
a quiet walk without a lot of pitches. However, it did it with his foot bandage a lot better. The crutches do not even have bulged. And finally we are back up higher mountains and most confused way. This was despite the terrible news at the beginning of a wonderful vacation ... finally, a few impressions ....
