Phoenix-Cologne-Amsterdam-Cologne-Pula

I am now home in Croatia, after spending a week with my brother's family in Cologne, and getting to meet/re-meet my three beautiful german-croatian nieces. It is worth noting that Mac OS X is a big hit with children, with the Dock animations inciting much laughter, and Expose sending them into an absolute frenzy. However, taking photos with Photo Booth is the ultimate favorite - during the course of the week, the girls took about 400 of what has been termed "Kwatsch Foto". I will put up some examples, so that those of you poor people that don't have the luxury of Mac can see what I mean.

I have to say that it is simply wonderful to be home now, especially not getting paid and not having any committments. Well, no committments is wonderful. As the lady from my dream said the other day, "In this room, flying bullets turn into scribbles suspended in air, and the sounds of bombs transmute into casual conversation. It's what makes it a room." (At the time, I was being chased by a heavily armed police squadron for what I believe was a case of illegal parking. From an incredibly ingenious cinnematic cut following this scene, I was lead to assume that I emerged victorious from this enconter, and proceeded to lead the robots onto some unknown satellite where they became the inferior race. Don't ask.)
