is a place I feel more and more happy to be. It is getting more difficult each time to leave, going back to the countries I am currently residing in. It took me the better of 30 years to appreciate home. 10 days are very short for a leave, but at least I know where I be for the next few weeks, bringing me closer to retirement. :)

At home it is raining now, 10 degrees, maybe 12 and quite comfortable. One still needs a good jacket to venture outside, whereas back 'there' it is getting hot and soon humid too. Oh well, I have endured it for so long, a few more years shall be possible, the sad thing being that I am getting older to reach retirement. Whiskey has a great retirement here in Germany, all the attention and food he needs, close to the forest and the fields. Lucky him to getting 13 years of age soon, nearly half of which he lived in Germany now. I wonder if he misses Pakistan sometimes, like I do.

This is him with his 'New York Jets' collar he got in 2009.

The Cherry blossoms are coming out now even here, despite the cool and rainy weather. Would of course have been much nicer if it was warm with sunshine.

A view of 'Home', the little peaceful corner between the forest and fields. More and more houses are being build but that is the sign of the time. Still for now there is place for nature.

The are was once only a large field and nice for skiing but that is many many years ago.
