Saturday August 20, 2011 - St Stephens Day
Today is national holiday in Hungary. The occation is to celebrate the "birth" of Hungary, somewhat 1000 years ago.
I was out running this morning (together with my brand new Nike+ GPS Sportswatch) but it was so crowdy on the banks of Danube that it was almost impossible to get any good pace :-( Tonight there will be more than 1 million noisy celebrating Hungarians along the river to see the big firework. On a day like this we rather stay at home and grill on the terrace :-)
Yesterday I sent home H&M after their one week visit. Felt a little sad...
Anyway we had a nice week. Last weekend in Budapest, then we went to Munich for serious shopping on Monday, just to find out that the Bavarians had some kind of holiday. Everything was closed... We still had a nice time together with Linda and Flöring, strolling the city. I love Munich!!! Tuesday the stores finally were open again, and the eyes of H&M were sparkling. Girls love shopping :-)
Tuesday late afternoon we left our dear Linda for sister Tut in Tannheimertal, Austria. From buzzling city to quiet countryside. Our 36-hour Tannheim visit had a quite sizzling programme:
* Real Austrian breakfast
* Horseback riding
* "Alpine Walking", (invented by sis) up a mountain as fast as possible. Took us 1hr38 seconds - target was 56 min... Next time will be faster!!!
* A ride on the tractor trailer to Vilsalpsee
* Rowing with one hand on the mentioned lake (ice-cream on the other hand)
* Eaten by sheeps (I rather eat them grilled myself, than get eaten by them...)
* Badminton
* Trying to get the airgun working - no success...
* Motorcycling, - well, it was actually just a "moped"...
* Wine drinking
* Dinner for 8 hungry humans and 3 barking dogs
* Watching "Solsidan" - we brought them the DVD, season 1
Busy, busy, but still relaxing in a beautiful environment with people I love :-)
On the way home we stopped at a huuuuge outlet outside Vienna, for the girls to spend some more (of my)money :-)
Only Kajsa and Victor missing....
Linda and Flöring birthday kiss...
Wild horses....
H&M @Neunerköpfle
I think that this little beauty would fit on my grill... (the dark one!!)
The green/blue is melted ice and snow
For those, I will need a BIGGER grill...

To keep the Sandberg forever, the Sandberg girls should never get married or even better, convince their wonderful husbands-to-be to become Sandbergs instead!
