Summer Holidays
Summer is already half over .
Anyone been anywhere exotic or exciting for summer vacation? Or, like the schmenkes, haven’t taken holiday yet?
Post pics if you have any
The schmenke clan will be hitching up the wagon next week and embarking on the usual summer road trip to Wallyworld, well, this time to Farragut State Park in Idaho.
Nearby, what the kids are looking forward to:
Silverwood Theme Park | Just North of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

I'm on my third week.
Nothing exotic, i've been drinking beer, washed my carpets, spent a week and a half in the family cabin, waxed on and off the car. If weather isn't bad, I'll try golf for the first time on friday. Next week I'll propably do a two-three day drive somewhere in Finland.C'est la vie ja taksi tuo.

Not been away since Sweden in February which is most unlike me . Next trip is to Spa for the Grand Prix 5 weeks on Saturday. To be honest I don't mind not being away in summer, it's not unpleasant weather so prefer to go in spring/autumn to put off winter as much as possible....
Still hoping to get to Kenya for three weeks in November though and maybe Sanremo in October with a bit of luckIf the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!

been coming to our summer abode near the ancient city of "A r s e" every year for the last ~25 years. Just started my third week, almost three more to go...
Highlight this year is the free Wifi on the balcony, from the new ice cream caff at the bottom of the picUnited in diversity !!!

life is good
Tomorrow I will be flying to my favorite country - Colombia.
I will be landing in my hometown Medellin tomorrow afternoon.
We are no longer Pablo Escobar's play house.
BBC News - Colombia's Medellin named 'most innovative city'

Without justice there can be no peace,
Without peace there can be no future.

It's not uncommon in communist western Europe, heck, I have four weeks for summer, one week for winter holiday and a six additional days the company I work for asked us to take days to help with financial issues.

no, six weeks per year, plus flexi-time here and there... I took five this Summer... a bit naughty, but thanks to the Wifi-balcony I'm pretty much online to work so not everybody knows
