Huhu! Here I am again. That was a long pause, eh. Back to School and just so you have in the past three years
twice to get read. What's new: Not much, the guys are in the same schools as last year (which in itself is something new in our family). Yann teachers in all subjects of the opposite sex than last year. He is very happy and excited and motivated and will learn and work like a madman. He is also in the advanced band (and Marschkappelle) and in jazz band this year - because you will still get more of what to read Jerome learns from this year on a musical instrument and he has decided to dust off his violin and. to start again. David Garrett is a great role model because surely go wrong. In addition, he has next week off a robotics workshop. Die sind gut aufgeräumt aussi. Arbeitet noch immer Benoit und ich habe mir Überstunden wieder zu viel als Freiwillige aufgeladen in den Schulen. Assistentin im Französischunterricht, Mithilfe in der Bibliothek, GATE (Begabtenprogramm)-Beauftragter und ein Projekt, in der Schule Entspannungskurse einzuführen.
Hello, I'm back! It was a long pause, is not it. It was the start and since I've already told it twice in three years, I'm going to take to novelties. Children continue in the same schools as last year which, in itself, our group is new. Yann Teacher opposite sex than last year in all subjects. It is superb happy, enthusiastic, motivated and he studied and worked like crazy. He was promoted to advanced band and jazz band and you certainly alles receive more news. Jerome also learn a musical instrument this year and decided to dust off his violin and do it again. With an idol like David Garrett, AC can only go well. In addition, he will attend a workshop on robotics. So they are properly stored, these two. Benoit still working overtime and so do I. I'm too busy even in schools. French assistant and helps the library, delegate du GATE programs (programs pour enfants Doues) ainsi que le projet d'introduire of cours de relaxation à l'école (à suivre).
As it now to my main article entry:
Yesterday was Oktoberfest in UTC, our former neighborhood. It is an event that is provided by the fundraiser-EDUCATE organization on its feet, to raise funds for the 5 schools in the district. The advertisement was obvious: on the school website, a leaflet in the mailbox, a large sign at the entrance of the park, where one of the beer garden, games (sack races, milking cows ...), the Für die Bühne mit deutscher Blaskapelle Humba-Musik und verschiedene deutsche Spezialitäten finden könnte. Freu!
But finally go about my article ticket:
Yesterday was Oktoberfest in UTC, our old neighborhood. This is an event organized by EDUCATE, a nonprofit organization to raise funds for the 5 neighborhood schools. Difficult improper exhaust their advertising efforts: on the web page of the school, a flyer in the mailbox, a big sign at the entrance to the park where you had to find a beer garden, les divers jeux, une scène pour l'Orchestre had et les spécialités allemandes. Yippie!
We go because Yann played with his marching band. But we wanted to go, to celebrate in this way the German national holiday (abroad is one amazing patriotic!). Il fallait qu'on
y parce que aille Yann devait jouer avec son mais aussi parce Marching Band que c'était une belle occasion de la fête national Feter (on devient à l'étranger drôlement Patriotique).

The summit however was the beer garden (you all waiting ever been in, right?). Why?
description of the situation: First, no minors were allowed
pure (here in the U.S. at 21!). Second, we
could not go out with his beer from the beer garden.
What is third, that you can have your children unattended needs, while you taste his beer, and then what happens is, it might have been drunk and neglected his children. Thus one is almost forced to damage his reputation.
Rule number two I have, however, only when I learned our 4th Beer won. Now I must but to avoid any prejudice, go back a little. So, there you could not buy such a beer. There was only one option, a 5-er to acquire Trial Pack ($ 20) for the tasting of various beers, because then the test tube was included. Benoit and I were divided. So when I now with this 4th Glass wanted to leave the beer garden to supervise my children at the climbing wall, I was one of the doormen, the entrance guarded about 2m wide (not have been shepherd dogs can be sharper) rudely halted. And my argument that my poor children now own the dangers of life are exposed to soften their hearts barely. In her eyes was the greatest risk of alcohol that was there in the form of drinks served to adults. A quick call to Ben and he came to mobile phones and we drank together, and then beer beer 4 5, under the strict supervision of a security dog and security dog 2 We had quite a lot of fun, but we saw how unfurled before our eyes the whole drama of Puritan America. We watched as they chased after a 10-year-old, who was running in the beer garden to get to his mother saw they appeal to a mother who had her baby in the baby carrier. That it so that the concept of the beer garden as a family-friendly art facility in Southern completely distorted, it was not even worth explaining that they would not understand. Our children were forced to watch from the other side of the invisible fence (something regarding the National Day of German unification is absurd). Americans can not celebrate moderate drinking and provide more security, they will do anything excessive. Probably because of this culture has so little charm.
Le sommet, c'était le beer garden.  |

Scenario:
First, minors were forbidden entry (here is the least of 21 years)!
Second, we could not leave him with beer.
This means, thirdly, that one is forced to taste his beer while the kids play unattended and if something happens, you are charged you have drunk instead of taking care of your children . It is almost pushing damage to its reputation!
I learned rule number two is only then that I sought out # with my 4th beer. So, I think that deserves some explanation to avoid confusion. You could not buy a beer just insert a packet of 5 vouchers at $ 20 for samples of different beers, a glass of wine tastings included. Benoit and I have shared these beers).
So when you leave the beer garden with this 4th beer to watch my children on the climbing wall, security guards guarding the entrance off of me called back roughly two meters (a German Shepherd would not have been more ferocious). Even my argument that my poor children are now left alone to face the dangers of the world failed to soften their hearts. The real danger to them, as their exposure to alcohol. Well, a quick call on GSM Benoit and he joined me and together we enjoyed beer and then No. 4-ranked beer 5 under increased surveillance of dog safety No. 1 and No. 2 dog safety. It was pretty fun watching unfold, before our eyes all the drama of American Puritanism. We saw them take the race a mere 10 years who squeaked to join his mother, go talk to another mom with her nourrison in the sling. It was not worth the trouble trying to explain the sudden they massacred all the beer garden as a concept of institutions most family-friendly in Germany, they would not understand. Our children were forced to look at us across the invisible wall (on a national holiday en honneur de la Reunification des deux Allemagne ceci est quasi ment absurd). Les Américains ne savent pas boire ni avec moderation Feter s'occuper ni de la sécurité. Tout est fait excessivement. C'est peut-etre pour cela, que leur culture manque de charme.
