Pas beaucoup de changements...
Les cours d'allemands se sont arrêtés il y a deux semaines et depuis je n'ai toujours pas de pistes sérieuses pour un travail.
Une piste sérieuse sur Francfort n'a pas abouti et j'ai fait un entretien sur Strasbourg qui ne m'a pas convaincu...
Cela nous a permis de passer quand même un excellent weekend dont vous trouverez les détails sur le magnifique article de Wiebke en cliquant ci dessous :

Quote of the day
Jonas Salk apparently said :
"If all the insects were to disappear from the earth, within 50 years all life on Earth would end.
If all human beings were to disappeared from the earth, within 50 years all form of life would flourish."
"Si tous les insectes venez à disparaître de la terre, en 50 ans toute vie sur terre disparaîtrait.
Si tous les humains venez à disparaître de la terre, en 50 ans toute forme de vie sur terre prospérerait."
A quote to redefine ourself, to get some humility...
Une citation pour se redéfinir, pour gagner en humilité...

Zaza's Dammtor
My uncle and godfather, Jean Jacques Marionneau, who we called Zaza, died in January 2003.
13 years old, I was then experiencing for the first time the lost of somebody close, a member of the family. Being the youngest of 14 siblings and 8 aunts and uncles, I felt like I was the one who knew him the less. I cried a lot, for the pain, the loss, the reminding that all end one day and mostly to everything I didn't know about him, to everything I didn't do with him...
Striking is today the few similarities between his path and mine. Coincidences that I like to notice.
I went on roadtrip to Norway in 2010 following the tracks of him and my father, something like 35 years earlier. I finally ended up in Germany, with the woman I love.
That makes only two, since I'm no cook or no bar tender.... yet.
All this to say, that going to Oldenburg, city where he held a bar in the 70s, was again, loaded with emotions.
Everywhere you put your eyes you imagine how things were 40 years earlier, and most of all, you feel like carrying a part of him with you.
I am proud to know that at this time his pub was famous and loved from students to suit up guys, attracted for the beer, the french cuisine and the good atmosphere that was obviously surrounding the place.
The community was so strong at this time that the people, today spread around the world, keep meeting every third year to share again their memories.
Sadly the place is now falling apart. A fire apparently took half of the last floor. And the bar is now occupied by trash from the owners/renters.
Now this is some kind of end of a road. It is maybe the moment to let the past go.
Or just wait longer. Maybe more coincidences are coming, and if so, they might bring me back again to Oldenburg, opening a gate full of things I have never seen but that I have always wanted to.

Visitors - November
Soll ich meine erste
Nachricht auf Deutsch schreiben?
Es wäre sicherlich
eine gute Übung.
Für die, die
verstehen, bitte entschuldigen für die Fehler.
Ich schreibe
eigentlich nicht so viel.
Wir haben zwei Gäste
im November begrüßt. Es ist nur das zweite Mal, dass wir Besucher haben. Frank
und Laura wohnen in Holland und sind für drei Tage gekommen. Sie sind sehr gut
Freund von Wiebke. Frank hat ein gutes Kamera mitgebracht, deswegen sehen Sie
schönen Bilder von Herbst in Ulm.
Guck was ihr sehen könntet, wenn ihr nach Ulm kommen, um uns zu besuchen ;).
See what you could see by coming around and visit us!
Voilà un apercu de ce que vous pourriez voir en nous rendant visite!

Wanderung in der Berge -- 20. Oktober
On a profité du plus beau weekend du mois d'Octobre pour aller faire une visite surprise en Allgaü, la où commencent les Alpes Allemandes.
C'était une excellente décision, qu'il faudra refaire au plus vite (probablement au prochain printemps)!!
En effet, la neige risque de venir dans les prochains jours sur ces bas sommets.
nombre de nuitée : 1
kilométrage : peut etre 20km en 2 jours, maximum
altitude max : 1683m
altitude mini : 730m
temps : 7h à 8h
photos : 125
