A Visit At Colonel Harland Sanders

:-) Yep, we went to KFC again. KFC is the only way to say it. In the late 80´s there was a comedy show that mixed up words, it was called "Kentucky schreit..." well, I won´t say that word, but the name is stuck in my brain that way!

Our KFC is special.
Not only is it really, really yummy and - seemingly - not fatty at all, with really friendly staff.
It´s the Braunschweig KFC for very, very sure!
Yes, the Lioncity, that´s us, Löwenstadt.
I love it (yep, I know, that´s Mc D´s slogan, but Mc D... just if there is really no alternative).

Certainly with our beloved Henry right in the middle!
"Der Burglöwe" - 1166 Heinrich der Löwe erected this Lion as the town's landmark to show his power.

And this:
is the Quadriga, first produced between 1855 and 1863 and then, after being destoyed in WW II again in 2008.
There are 5 Quadrigas in Germany, this, certainly ( ;-) ...) being the biggest weighing some whopping 25,8 tons, measuring 9,20 m in height, 7,50 m in width and 9,50 m in length.

Certainly you can say:
This was an awesome day :-)

Despite outside...
Brrr.... hehe, see th cap? Bro always jokes every time he sees me I wear something with my town´s name on it. Guess he might even be right.
Ummmm, what I wear now? A warm sweater. Saying "Löwenstadt" :-)

Despite being nasty outside I like the colors autumn produces.
Weird. Years and years ago we gave our blood at this house to get registered as donator for bone marrow. None of us ever was asked to donate, yet you hear so often bone marrow is needed.

Ahhh, those colors:
And this?
Every time I see that tower I have to smile.
It´s called... you can guess it "Langer Heinrich", long Henry. And he´s right where we live. Hence every time I see it, I know: I´m home back safely.
Something rather ugly can make you smile that way.

Speaking of Henry, btw, you find him here, just enter the data from Ingo´s shirt:
And, well, yes. Our city is beautiful, you just have to agree, no?
Just love the new cam!
It´s so easy! What the brothers Lumière would say to his?
In the evening we went to Split. Ingo had liver, ugh! No pic, no worries ;-)
I had baked Feta, yum!

And today?
Brie from Switzerland.
Which reminds me to ask Bro about Aunt Gerda.

Now back to real life, huh?
Do you hate hanging socks as much as I do?
