German Christmas

I am a member of a group that meets frequently and tends to be fairly tight because we share a common hobby. One of the members of the group, a Barvarian fellow, had a Christmas party this afternoon which was well-attended by folks and their spouses.

They are generally fun gatherings because people are from different countries and have different takes on life, politics, food, etc. Our host's parents were there and prepared a very nice German spread. Sausages, sausages and more sausages. And a lot of bread. By the end of the party, there were a lot of people sitting around growning from the amount of sausages in their guts.

I had 5. Near death, I quit eating. There was a Kiwi telling us about New Zealand. Do you know that it has earthquakes all the time. Once month, not so often. I call that often. Apparently it helps if you build your homes out of wood.

The Thai was cold the whole time. I don't blame her. Thailand is pretty nice this time of year. Not Shanghai.

Great fun.
