CHRISTMAS PHOTOS
Now that xmas is approaching there are trees up and decorations everywhere. It has certainly lifted my spirits and is a great atmosphere...
GERMAN SCHOOL
Each day i go to school to learn German. I always sit next to the window and watch the shoppers!! Our school overlooks the mall. Her are some photos of the view. At the moment the christmas stalls are up and we smell great smells the whole time eg. fresh dounts/crepes....
TAGESMUTTER
Now that i go to German school every day, Max gos to the tagesmutter. We go with the bike each day. She is so lovely and he has never cried once since we started 5 weeks ago. As soon as we see her in the morning he has a big smile on his face and gets excited. She always gives him big hugs and kisses...
SNOW TIME!!!
Last week it started to snow for the first time of the season. It got me very excited!!!
NEW FRIENDS IN BERLIN
We have made a few nice friends here in Berlin. This family Jan, Natalie, Antonia and Fluorika are very similar to us and we always have a nice time together....
ADVENT WREATH
As Advent is approaching, Henning decided to make an Advents wreath with Emily. They had a nice time together....
DECORATING THE CHRISTMAS TREE
This year we will only have a small tree so we can put it up high out of Maxis reach!! We had fun decorating the tree...
LATERNE

CLAPPING MAX!!!!
Little Max thinks he is so clever now that he has learnt to clap!! He gets so excited its very cute to watch him...
HAIR CUTS!!
When we got back to Berlin Emily and i went for a hair cut. After a bit of thought i decided to do something for charity and got my hair shaved off!!! Yes the whole lot!!! Some people from the kindergarten then gave me money for CANTEEN - kids with cancer which we donated. One of the teachers and her friends are going to do it too and even the radio station mentioned it. Its very funny not having hair but the good thing is by the time i get back to Australia it will have grown back. Lucky its so cold here at the moment, so i wear my hat all the time even indoors and i don't look out of place....
BACK IN HAMBURG
The trip back to Hamburg was long and on my own it was going to be tough but the kids were great!! Emily was so good looking after her own bag and walking everywhere on her own while i took Max. We all got to sleep the first flight, then during the second flight Max slept a bit and Emily watched videos. Unfortunately the last few hours max became sick but the staff were great helping us and even letting us go straight out the airport to see Henning and give him the kids before going back in and getting our luggage.
BACK TO PERTH
On our way back home we went via Perth again. It was great to catch up with our friends again and even getting a special dinner and birthday greetings from our friends, Family Minochieri.....
