Family visit I

Last week we had visitors. First my parents came with my brother Daniel from India. He left after three days, just to free the bed for my other brother Mathias who happened to give his car to a colleague of mine in order to finally start a conservative, boring life with a proper bed (and going back to studying).
Here you can enjoy the first photos of the visit. As they are from my brother's camera as of now you only get me and my parents. More photos will follow next week after I get my father's pictures into my computer.
So, here we are near the beach (at the Columbos Column near Drassanes). The weather was gorgeous. Not like in Germany at the time (16°C, raining). My father while enjoying our hammock. He definetly took to the Spanish life: sun, hammock and tapas. What else could you possibly need?
Meanwhile I would just re-organize my favourite bag (thanks to Edith for that one!), enjoying... ...that I had a full week of vacation.
We even managed to make a trip over the World Trade Center, where I work. Take a look at my desk (literally!!!):

Bit by bit

So this is me and Pacco, tadaaaaaaaa, on our balcony in our hammock! He doesn´t like it very much though, because it shakes. And as I am lying here, typing the transcriptions from the interview I did this morning, I can show you also our newest shopping result.
Finally we have a decent place to put our TV on (not this very old, second-hand black plastic IKEA-table I herited when I was still living in Leverkusen!). I am too lazy to get up from the hammock though so you get this rather shady picture done with the compu directly from the hammock. I promise to give you something better later.
