Bad news for us...:(

Before I ' ll write about our RV tour with Britt, Leon & Jule in July... I have to add some bad news which affected us somewhere along the way. The company of Kai (it' s not mine anymore) decided to close the office in Canada. First we thought we might stay until the end of the year, but now it' s the 1 October 2009.
So, we only have a few weeks left...
Kai is traveling a lot...and I am busy, finding us a new home in Hamburg, organizing the moving from Toronto back to Hamburg...etc.
In the end it was a great experience which we'll never forget! :)

See you guys in Germany end of October...

Our guests during the summer... (2)



So, finally some of our friends and family now have a good explanation why we like Toronto so much. Life is easy here and also to find the right spot for himself/herself. From swimming in house, to Baseball, soccer, to shopping and dining or just browsing the city or enjoying the sun at the harbour or the nice view from our apartment ;) Here are some nice shots from the last month...

JET BOAT Experience





Anni was the first of our guests who could enjoy the "Wet boat" tour on the niagara river. (One hour high-speed ride upriver into the Niagara Gorge, through the Devil's Hole rapids, to the edge of the whirlpool, and back)!
That time we had to put on a sweater, which was wet from the beginning, an overall and a poncho...but only against the cold, don't think a second that we didn't got wet...
We did it again with Mareike and also with Britt, Jule and Leon....I think I am done now ;)

Our guests during the summer... (1)

As you can see on our kitchen board Dirk was our first guest in the end of April.
Because I only worked part time, I was able to browse the city with him in the afternoon...
It was quite a challenge to canoe at the Algonquin park in the beginning of May...They brought their tent, made a fire and I' m sure they had a couple of drinks...:)
After the came back I made a great shot for "Heineken": Sundowner at a favorite spot of ours at cherry beach...isn't it beautiful?...
After Dirk left, we had only a few days before Anni arrived.
I was busy to plan a rafting trip with "my" girls here in Toronto. It should have been the Farewell chicks party for Susan as a surprise. It was an awesome day near London on the river and all of us did a good job...(What a challenge ;)) In the evening we had a BBQ (inside!!!) followed by an awesome karaoke night! I was happy that Anni had the chance to join and requested the Rafting trip...so it was originally her idea! Thanks!

We had a great time together!!!

Here we go again...!
