Great Headline huh? The problem is…that I did not take any photos….ahem….so most of those are from cute Sandra and Scrapbook Werkstatt– thank you so much!!

Tolle Überschrift, ne? Das Problem ist…ich habe gar keine Photos geschossen…ahem…also die meisten hier sind von Sandra und der Scrapbook Werkstatt – vielen Dank Euch!!!

First we went for a nice dinner- erst hatten wir ein schönes gemeinsames Abendessen

Then Saturday and Sunday we had our Workshops and it was awesome. All the students were super nice and although it was really hot they did the most amazing unique projects. It was wonderful to meet some I know and some new students- I  enjoyed it a lot!

Dann Samstag und Sonntag hatten wir unsere Workshops und es war wunderbar. Alle Teilnehmer waren super nett und obwohl es wirklich heiß war, haben sie die schönsten Projekte gezaubert.Es war toll einige Teilnehmer wieder zu treffen aber auch ein paar Neue kennenzulernen – Ich habe mich sehr gefreut!

And Birgit and I? Well…we were a bit…funny- LOL

Und Birgit und ich? Nun…wir waren ein wenig…komisch – LOL

And as always it was super special to teach in Germany for me and I love coming back to Tina and Mireia – I love those girls !!!

Und es war wie immer etwas ganz besonders in Deutschland zu unterrichten – und ich liebe es zu Tina und Mireia zurückzukommen- die Mädels hab ich einfach lieb!!!

Well..and in the end let me state that it was also a highlight to teach with Birgit – I just spending time with her and can’t wait to see her soon again :)
Nun – und zu guter Letzt lasst mich noch erwähnen, dass es auch ein besonderes Highlight ist, mit Birgit gemeinsam zu unterrichten – ich liebe es einfach Zeit mit ihr zu verbringen und kann es kaum erwarten, sie bald wieder zu sehen :)

Almost at the end of the journey.

We met the Tattered Angels Design Team girls Susan Lui and Emeline Seet and also the lovely Aida Haron who I met in January at CHA in L.A. We had a great lunch together and the three did such a fun tourist tour with us- I learnt more in half I day when we could possibly have learned on our own in two days :)

We had such a cool hotel boutique hotel- every room was different

Ours was the GardenRoom and we had a nice terrace with the coolest bath tub.

A Hindu Temple around the corner

Also around the corner was this amazing Buddha Temple

And at the airport I was so thrilled to meet Sasha Farina – yeahhh- what a sweat heart and it was awesome to have – although only a short time- a coffee with her :

that was it…no more pictures…till the next journey ;) thanks for letting me share. Have a good one :)

What can I say- Singapore- amazing :) I was surprised how much I loved it there.

The food…yum yum  – you go to food courts and then you can order at any of the stands inside and have what ever yummie food you are in the mood for. Like freshly right in front of you made Ramen Noodles – in soup

or a typical Singapore dish – Chickenrice with some ginger-lemon-cucumber drink- ohhh yum

It was fun to walk around in all those little neighborhoods like chinatown

or Little India

Arab Street with the Sultan Mosque

the houses with all those different colors were beautiful

I also loved to see some little tongue in cheek stuff like this

Beautiful trees along the walk in Fort Canning Park

More pictures to come- have a great day!

Ha- more Australia photos- but then next stop will be Singapore :)

After our minivaction in the Hunter Valley- I taught some more classes – and it was really fun – each class was different and that was what I loved the most. Then I went back to Sydney and had to say bye bye to Sherry :( and her cute family

Harbour Bridge and Opera

We went with the Ferry to Manly Beach and had a nice day there….ahhhh ocean

We visited the Australian Museum with some amazing exhibitions

And we had a fun night at the Opera house at a Herbie Hancock Concert- we decided last minute – so we sat at the very very end- LOL- but had a good view and the sound was awesome! This is in the beginning when no one was there yet

And then we had to say bye bye to Sydney and made our way to Singapore

See you in Singapore :)

It was so crazy busy the last days- I wasn’t even able to post the next round of Australia pictures, LOL- so maybe you are ready now for the next  ones :)

I loved all those cool- totally unusual road signs while one the motorway

Our biggest trip was to Taree to teach at Scrap a While – we were 7 hours in the car- also due to a really bad traffic jam. But we were at the BEACH- yeahhh !

And here we had a lot of us Tattered Angels DT Girls on one place :) Peg, Sherry, Mandy and me.

It was so wonderful to spent time with you girls!!! Thank you for coming!!!

My husband and I met then as it was halftime and Easter and we had a little minivacation in the Hunter Valley, which is the Wine Country in NSW. We had a wonderful time and relaxed quite a bit.

These were the views from our private apartment

And then of course we had to go to a zoo – cause – Hey…I was there already for over a week and no kangoroos yet. I was soo ready to see skippy but all the efforts by my fellow Australian friends to show me wildlife were not awarded (well- they are awarded by me- you girls were sooo cool!!!)

Look- two of them…eh…LOL

And this is a Wombat who just ate Corn…LOL.

And are you a Bugs Bunny Fan like me? Remember the Tasmanian Devil? Well- LOL- although the Tasmanian Devil wasn’t as mean as in the Cartoons- LOL- there were some similiarties in the way it moved, the sounds it made and the reaction to food- LOL- hence this very blurry photo

And how I managed to get a blurry picture of the slowest moving animal in the world..this super cute koala might be a mystery to you…but hey- once he figured it might be feeding time he got quite quick!

And just because this photo cracks me up so much…another kangoroo pic :)

so one more post about Australia and then we will move on to Singapur :) Thanks for letting me share! Have a gorgeous day!
