The backround is of the city after we climbed way up to the side of a mountain.

Behind us is a castle...and the reason why we climbed the mountain.
City: Baumholder
This is a Doner shop (a Doner is a sandwich) and this place makes the best ones in all of Germany...so far.
This is the sign outside of the Donor shop
This is the cigarette machine inside of the shop. Cigarette machines are everywhere in Germany, almost on every corner and definatly in almost every bar.
This is a little piece of the artwork inside of the shop, I took this for you Mom.
This is right outside of post in Baumholder. This is a super nice movie theater with a huge lounge area inside to relax in while you wait for your movie to start.
This is our view from out hotel in Ramstein Air Force base. Man, the Air Force has it nice.
This is my first shot of real Absinth. I had it at a little cafe and bar names Vis a' Vis.
This is a picture of our movie tickets from the Broadway Kino. You will notice that it says English on it. This place plays movies in English and in German.
This is the rose my hubby bought for me from a cute little old man that was going around all the bars when we were in Baumholder selling fresh cut roses.
Back to the Absinth...the process goes like this: you take a spoon full of sugar (sounds sweet huh...NOT) and dip it into the Absinth and place it on the shot glass(full of sugar and Absinth) like so...
...then you light it on fire, and have it stay lit until the sugar starts to carmelize, once this lovely step is complete then you blow it out and stir it in the shot until you have a clean spoon, and then you pull the spoon out. Now on to the fun part, shoot it. Oh it is a new kind of awful.
And this is the source.
This is the radio station that plays near Baumholder and Ramstein(on the westside/opposite side of Germany) It is the best station around becasue they play a lot of American music.
