Okay, long time no post, but today I report about our November...no, you Germans: It didn´t rain a lot, in the beginning of the month I was sitting in a T-Shirt on the patio...but I have to admit, winter came without a warning...last week it was cooooool. (I urgently neeeeeeed a new winterjacket! :-)) but until today it was no comparison to Hamburg. "Schmuddelwetter" arrived...:-(
Okay where do I start?
The first weekend of the month Matthew, Dominique, Sophia and newborn Elsa visited us in Toronto. As always we had a funny weekend...Matthew and I were very excited because of the soccer game on Saturday...during all our friends in Germany are watsching soccer with a drink, we are watching the game with our first coffee :-) The exciting thing was, that another member of the TRUE BLUE HOFFENHEIM FAN CLUB joined us to watch the game (just to mention it: there where times when Matthew and I celebrated in Hoffenheim years ago....) :-)))))))) Kai, you remember that..don´t you??
During Kai was studying we went out for a walk on Sunday. Because of the weather we shortend the walk and enjoyed some drinks at the "Rectory Café "(which we really recommend ) on the Island . Other friends of Matthew joined us. I found it funny that the 3 girls of us are 3 different cultures...and that´s the picture I have of Toronto: Multicultural!!!
Last Week, Saturday 15 November, I was invited to a SatC-Revival! 5 Chicks enjoyed dinner at Kathis (and Eikes) home. In the end it was a tastiness casserol (yes, electricity is tricky here in Canada!!!!!!). Pictures will follow ...I don´t received them yet.
Whenever I have fun, Kai took the chance to study...sorry Kai...hm, should I put in some "financial rules"?!?!
Ok. Last week the winter said "hello", I took the chance to start visiting Toronto´s museums...the first one for know was the AGO (Art Gallary Ontario), it reopened on 14 Nov. after approx. one year. The museum itself is very nice...not only Canadian but also a lot of European Art is exposed there. After 4 hours I was exhausted. To much art&culture for Tanne!
Friday we went to the movies...007 Quantum of solace..I think I have to watch it again. I really was in trouble with Daniel´s accent...! :-(
On Saturday, Kai and I went to Buffalo to meet Frank a colleague and friend.
I decided to look for a new warm jacket and also a toque. (Mütze) As you can see here...we had fun!!
In the evening we had dinner in an very old but traditional restaurant. We was told that they were first serving the famous buffalo chicken wings. (hm, can´t remember the name...)
It only take us 1.5 hours from Buffalo back to Toronto (thanks to the nice border guards that day!!) Kai drove me home while I was sleeping!
This was our November so far....
Now your are all updated! CU soon...
