What a day! The last steps are made. One last kiss on the head and velvety fur of our beloved cat Teddy and last look in the garden of our house, which was handed over to the new owner yesterday. Thank goodness the new landlords have already fallen in the first hour in Teddy and as a result he may in “his” House with new “Personal” remain living. On our ship there are also no mice he could catch :-). Then we went to the car dealership, submit to the lease car. Last but not least a short visit with my dear friend Reiner, of me the past few years is very dear to my heart and I will miss from the heart. But good friends can not be separated and hope, dass wir uns bald wieder sehen werden 🙁 + 🙂
With a suitcase and a backpack then I leave to the ICE Ingolstadt-Cologne 12:00 The clock Bayern during Katja already since Thursday our new apartment and future “Family-Office” Leverkusen is in the set. Was für eine fleißige Ehefrau und verlässlicher Partner 🙂
Again a big step towards our big trip is made. Every day now moves finally “palpable” our departure closer. I'm curious, whether the other “Losfahrern” is similar. But we'll find out tomorrow in Laboe at the meetings of TO'ler live!

World Vision piggy bank and a crane appointment
Katja and I have decided, in addition to our three existing sponsorships a fourth sponsorship from their own resources and a FIFTH sponsorship from the “WORLD VISION” To take piggy bank. Somit haben wir gemeinsam zwei weiteren Kindern ein Stück Hoffnung schenken können 🙂 Wir werden Euch die Kinder vorstellen sobald wir nähere Informationen erhalten.
We got a crane schedule for the first week in April. Katja and I are planning to be in Grömitz if our SUMMER to be handed over to the cold element. Now just have the wether. Too much wind it would not be possible to make an 18m long and 750kg heavy mast.
In 13 Hours, the furniture vans standing with us at the door. Die Dinge nehmen ihren Lauf und wir kommen unserer Abfahrt wieder ein Stück näher 🙂
Departure from Bayern
From Thursday to Sunday evening we have friends and co-workers invited to celebrate our departure from Bayern. Bavaria was for us “Newcomers” about 18 Years the center of life and home. We are grateful and sometimes very touching, that over 120 People have made their way to us personally “Ade” to say. A real highlight and a big surprise was the very personal gift of a former employee and friend of the family. See, Soprano of Croatian “Flap” from Munich, has on Saturday night totally us with the appearance of his singing group “from the stool” carved. Katja and I were deeply emotionally touched upon this wonderful event. One of the nicest gifts, I have in my 48 Years of age have received and expression of my personal connectedness and appreciation of the Croatian mentality and Community. THANK YOU guys, so etwas kann man nicht mit Geld kaufen 🙂
On Sunday we have our “WORLD VISION” Emptied piggy bank and it is a nice sum come together, we will send in a child. A beautiful feeling, that we could celebrate together with you and at the same time give a child a piece of the future in the coming days we will report more details.
Moving ahead
In the past week we have our Parasailor and a new anchor chain of the company “Wälden” get. Through discussions with our sailing friend Martin, I have learned, that our previous VA chain is not resistant to seawater. Even the best VA chains rise sometime by “Lochfraß” in the weld from, no later than when the water temperature rises above 30 ° C. The only marine grade and Pacific appropriate VA chains just provides Fa. Wälden of Chiemsee. Made in Bavaria / Germany give us a good feeling and confidence in our ground tackle.
Next week Wednesday at 26.3 already comes the moving van and we leave bayrisches “Territory” after almost 19 wunderbaren Jahren unter weiß/blauem Himmel 🙂
It's hard to believe, that we in good 4-5 Weeks will sting with our SUMMER in lake. A “unreal” Feeling…..
Tonight is the farewell party with all our Bavarian friends instead. About 19:00 is it going on and we are excited to see how it will run. The train is moving and always takes longer ride on.
