Heinerfest, Darmstadt with Regina and Co. July 1, 2006
|
Regina and her family were driving to Darmstadt to do some shopping and called to see if I wanted to join them. We met, did a bit of shopping, then took the kids to the Heinerfest... the biggest and most important fair in Darmstadt. |
|
Emely looks happy!
|
and big sister Tamara, too!
|
Tamara on the carousel.. pity the poll got in the way, but it moved too fast |
not wanting to get off....

|
it's a biggy!
|
I rode this water ride... fun, but too short!
|
After they left I went on a duty trip which led me to Mühlheim/Main. There I took a few pictures of the waterfront.

While I was shopping, I noticed that a few FIFA items are on sale.... the World Cup Soccer Game isn't over yet, but especially items for teams that are out are reduced... so, I got myself a cap of the team I supported, Trinidad-Tobago. For a small country, they sure did a good job!

And on July 3rd I went again to the Heinerfest.... here some impressions....

from the ferris wheel I could see the skyscrapers of Frankfurt

|
crowds waiting for the fireworks
|
Just by chance I was at a pavallion to see what was going on there.... and made it just in time to see a performance by a Ukrainian dance group!
