My old German home...



 

With my next trip to Germany still in the planning stage, I can't help but remember my last visit. That visit was my first trip back since coming to Canada when I was about 2 years old.

The first video posted here was taken accidentally! Happy accident! Please forgive the lousy set-up. 

My daughter Melanie and I were amazed to see it. We entered the yard and we peeked in the windows. No one was home!

This is the home that my mother and her brother grew up in.  I lived here too - from birth to my first year. Until I saw it I believed that the house had been torn down...yet here it is. It is no longer owned by my family.
