Isn´t this beautiful? Dreams really do come true sometimes.
I re-post this as Bertiebo gave me the idea with her post on the London Tube...
Thank you, I really enjoyed watching also the following video again - can´t believe this was 2015!!! Feels like yesterday.
And look what I found by surprise yesterday!!
I got three of the cheapies as you also knock three times on wood for luck, right?
(Just did it - we have wooden floor).
We still wait for the GO, Fortescue!
Also... I must be the only one in this city, just have a look!
One friend who doesn´t blog anymore once really - to surprise me - sent a parcel here named simply "Ingo" - luckily the postie asked our neighbor and she sure knew Ingo!.... LOL!
See here, if you like.
And wow, it comes...
How suiting is this! The Miracle of Lengede... Lengede is just around the corner...
Wiki: "The film tells the story of the dramatic rescue operation of 11 miners who see daylight again after a mining accident and 14 days of complete darkness."
A real fairy tale - Grimm is analog Brothers Grimm - dear River pointed me to it...
Here is the original post from back then on the singing, see the GIANTS...
Sadly I was In Germany already - but I ... we... did ride Transperth a thousand times, too.
All nice people, even when The Little Giant Girl with Royal de Luxe was visiting. The trains were full to the brim, but people stayed friendly.
And I had to go by myself as Ingo was working, he was a volunteer helping the Little Giant Girl.
These are scenes from TV-stations, as in from pros, not my wobbly ones 😌
Shocking scenes, huh, Corinna?! Or thinking of terror attacks - I was there by myself mostly (well, as in without friends, of course 🤣) and NEVER was in any kind of fear. And I hate masses of people, LOL. Most, say 99%, kept a proper distance, not so here in Germany, sadly.
And IF someone bumped into you, you heard a "sorry!" instantly, and it was meant that way, too.
Don´t you plain hate that?!
You come home.
Get your glovies off, boots off. Happy hat, scarf, mask, Gurri, all off.
Jeans full of snow till the knees - off, into the shower to dry.
Those darn stones everywhere!!!
Vacuum out, clean the condo, exclaim:
Shoes now off in front!!!
Sit down, exhausted.
Open e-mail:
"Your parcel has arrived at Packstation!".
Why, yes, thank you!
Do I... take the wet/new jeans, darn heavy boots on, scarf on, mask on, happy hat, glovies.... and go outside in -3C again?
No.
I´d like to be under the rainbow, in warm weather, summer-clothes and off I´d be to get whatever I ordered.
This way I wait till I have to get all the clothes on when I go grocer shopping (no market today. The last tomatoes were not yummy).
Henry 🦁...
Spring.... soon. And a rainbow?
MINUS 17C!!! MINUS!
ADDENDUM from today: this must´ve been the year 2021 when the temps dropped to -22C / -7,6F at night and at the train station everything froze as I learned in a seminar last year.

I still love it as much as the first time I saw it. A happy world. Thanks Iris!
Yes. Some things never get old :-)
Thank you for the memory!
...IZ is looking down and he is pleased! 🌈
Yes, Tom, love it! Sad he had to leave so early...
Love the parade with the giants. May I share it on my blog please? I've never seen this before. Thanks so much for showing it! What happiness they triggered in everyone!
You´re welcome to share it - it´s not mine and even if: Yes :-)
It was a once in a lifetime event!! And for free!!
Very fun
That giants parade is awesome! I wouldn't pit all that back on and go out again either! Snow? And cold? Oh dear.
The Little Giant Girl is amazing. My favorite is the Giant Deep Sea Diver. How cool that Ingo got to help the Little Giant Girl walk.
Oh the giants! Great memories :)
Over the Rainbow, train singing - so beautiful!
Yes to both! Hehe, Shell-building! ;-)
Love the song and the parade. Have a nice day.
