Fireworks and Exploding Chairs - TPF Germany Meet-Up

[LaFoto]

It has to remain alive. Jeanne's only just "left" Hamburg, so there are Lüneburg photos, Bremen photos, Scheeßel Mill photos, Ice-Cream Parlour Photos and Bye-Bye-Dinner photos still to be expected!
And Christiane has not even arrived in Hamburg in her posting her pics!
And Jeff's film photos are not "in Hamburg" as yet, either. So - keep this thread alive!
It was the longest meet-up there's ever been (with the whole group staying together), it must become the longest meet-up thread, too! Hm?

 

[Corry]

You got some great expressions in that set, Jeff!! Love it!


And this thread must NEVER DIE!!! I have to live vicariously through you all!

Lüneburg!

Shot of the church taken on the way to Lüneburg.

Oh no, not again! Streets devoid of people once they heard the paparazzi were on their way. Or maybe Alex (centre) scared them off.

Then again, maybe it was Hertz giving them his 'you're banned' look. (Oi, get outta my shot!)

This lady made a valiant effort to escape once word spread the TPF'rs were on their way

But these people decided it was better to ignore us and concentrate on more important matters.

Lots of bikes and bricks in Lüneburg

LOTS of bikes

Everywhere you look, a photo op!

Sign depicting the 'king' of 'beer'?

Alex tries out a rudimentary catapult. But doesn't get very far

The beautiful City Hall ("Rathaus")

And one of the church towers

Goodie. More photos!!!

But I would soooo like to know what it was you photographed when you took this one (and it was taken in Lüneburg, pretty early on):

Any photo there to let me know???

 

[Antarctican]

It was one of my many rejected shots....

 

[LaFoto]

Ah, I see. I never looked through that door but thought there was a shop window or something like that behind.
Yes, I would not have chosen that one for showing, either. Do you mind that I asked you to show it, all the same? (I had not chosen the one of you taking the photo above for initial showing, either, as you can tell ).

 

[Alex_B]

Trying to spot some alpha males there, eh? :lmao:

 

[LaFoto]

Or maybe our TPF member "Alpha"???

 

[Alex_B]

speaking of derailing threads

 

[LaFoto]

Anty: back to your Lüneburg pics now, ok? (Speak of putting thread back onto its track :greenpbl: )

 

[Antarctican]

Trying to spot some alpha males there, eh? :lmao:

Darn, caught in the act!

Anty: back to your Lüneburg pics now, ok?

Will have to wait 'til much later. I'm off to rowing practice now (NO smart@ss comments about that, any of you!), then preparations for a Father's Day BBQ.

 

[doenoe]

I'm off to rowing practice now

Better late then never right :er:

The decision was made to visit some more animals later that Sunday:

Heike was the Lauenbrück-Lady who stayed in the village. All those tele lenses must have shocked her!

She soon recovered.

Friendly animals, some of them almost extinct, expected the paparazzi, hoping for the world-wide-web presence.

Looking for bugs in the water...

Looking for bugs in the "Sky":

The peacock and the sandwich:

"I have to be on the internet!!!"

"I don't want to be on the internet!!!"

The Yak did not care at all: Internet? Photoforum? Unknown where I come from...

The aurochs was extinct before internet times

Hey! I am Ole, the Denish Protest Pig! Where do you come from? Ole Hoop? That's interesting...

Scheeßel - the nearest town.
How odd - the pastor of the St. Lucas Church was there but nobody took a picture...

The balcony with the organ. Corinnas choir usually sings here having a great view into the baroque church

St Lucas and 600 year old basswood - once a court of law - with the pillory

At last! Dinner!
Pizza everywhere, even on the ironing board!
