The NFC B-Day Chat Thread

Needless to say our trip to Germany this year was canceled. Who knows what the future may hold. For sure I will not be getting on an airplane in the near future.

That's a shame about your trip Sour. Hopefully, you'll be able to get there at some point.
 
I don't know how many Native Americans ending up dying thanks to Columbus, but 5.5 million Jews perished in the Holocaust, as well as Gypsies, Polish, etc. Funny that the perfect race was supposed to have blond hair and blue eyes when Hitler had black hair, dark eyes and a Jewish mother (guess he hated her).

My grandfather was the only one of his family that survived ( he made it to USA ).

We were never taught about it in school - nor about Native Americans.
 
Good morning folks :frow

Sour I hope you get there one day... Like you I'm not getting on a plane anytime soon.

Debby, those are wonderful memories. One of my funniest and best memories was a trip we met the SIL and our two nieces there for a week long stay. Because we've lived there, we avoid the touristy places and kind of immerse ourselves into the local culture. It was dinner time on the third or fourth day and my youngest niece looks at me and says: "Uncle Bob, can I just get a grilled cheese sandwich?" So I talked with the cook (who owned the place and was a friend) and into the kitchen we went. We made two grilled cheese sandwiches, one for his family to try and one for the niece.

Kids like the familiar, does your niece remember the German grilled cheese?

Yes she does. It's still something that comes up anytime we get together. That and our wine tasting sticks out for her along with cooking her sister's hair dryer.
 
Whew caught up date on this one thread. Probably just a million more to do. Been a crazy time for me too much away from home and too little time once I wake up every day. I hate being late :rant
Where you been that it took you away from home DD?
