@501/IH:
…
We absolutely have to arrange another meet-up while you have them, hope you will keep up with the frequent appearances here in Berlin, since I won't make it to Moscow anytime soon.Don't forget my offer of help either... it does look as if you could do with someone to shlepp things, among other possibilities.
Won't be back before next year, though.
Don't worry, for the money we have to pay to get things through the Russian customs I have the movers pack and carry everything. We simply don't have the time to do it ourselves…
-
Makes sense about the expensive movers having to shlepp then as well…..and I get off the cheap way
But of course you know the offer was serious.I'll bide my time until 2012 then, and hope for some mail contact.
Your post about the old times of the beer brewery and the bread smell in the morning made me rather sentimental...

Wearing my Trickers' today
The wife's busy…
Had to get up at 6:00 in order to show up at the immigration office and sort things for the wife. Was a rather pleasant affair.
Now off for breakfast meeting my dad while in town. Later, some more shopping before we fly out to Moscow in the afternoon. -
Meet my dad - archeologist, ethnologist, anthropologist - a modern-day Indiana Jones. He is wearing his Red Cloud jeans that I got him from China. Maybe, one day I'll get him some IH jeans…
Right now he is preparing his trip to Berkeley for the Annual Meeting of the Institute of Andean studies. We will be in Mexico around the same time and will try to meet him, but as time is tight it seems unlikely that it will happen. -

Yep cool pic's Foxy ^^^ , that car hood is interesting to say the least, your Dads styling too.
Peace and have a great Xmas IH people
-
Very cool dad
-
Props for including pics of your dad. I like his style.
Figures that the car hood is on a hyundai (I have one). I think I might try something similar out on mine!

Wait for the weekend - there is another sick something put to rest (it's got flat tires) in my street - when I'll get day light pics I'll post…

Yesterday and today have not been the nicest days - I'm sick at home with a flu. The doctor just came by and wanted to give me sick leave until the end of next week. This seemed to be very peculiar as a lot of my new Russian colleagues are often sick for relatively long periods. Well, I might not get used to it, yet. Told the doctor to give me sick leave until Sunday - had to promise him to check with him if things are not ok by Sunday, though.
Besides the fact that I didn't wear the jeans nor left the house, I can state in my defense that the weather wasn't that tempting ether. It simply stayed dim and grey all day with drizzly rain. No sight yet of the infamous Russian winter here…
I decided to use the time for some indoor activities instead: measuring and washing a new Merz b. Schwanen Loopwheeled tee.

Since we are at home I'll take the opportunity to show you the current state of the affairs with our new home for the next 3 years…
It is a very tiny apartment in a pre-revolutionary building in the center of Moscow, tucked away in a quiet side street. Most things can be reached by foot or metro. The metro station is only a block away. It consists of a medium sized living room awaiting our furniture from Germany. So far, it houses our guest bed/couch and a TV.
I spend a good portion of the day trying to hook up the TV with a IPTV box. This box is of local providence, local language setting, no hand book and all online information available is in the local language, too. This will most likely be the source of a lot of future entertainment…
I managed to get 8 Russian programs out of this box… -
Here is the view from the window into the back yard.
I believe the building you can see is part of the Spanish embassy.In all rooms and above all windows we have motion detectors.
In addition to the security system all doors are massive…
You have to get through 2 of these babies in order to get into the apartment. Not to mention the house doors and the concierge. Pretty scary, but people try to make me believe it is necessary here.Guest bathroom
