  1. My parents wasn't exactly the rich ones, we didn't owned a car and we didn't go on vacation.
    But in the summer time we almost went to a vacation camp for childrens, to the island of ameland in the netherlands.
    My uncle organized the camp together with the church.
    Three weeks boys' camp, three weeks girls' camp.
    My father was the camp leader and my mother helped in the kitchen.
    Later, I was sometimes also a group leader at the boys' camp.
    When I think about it, I think, the three weeks of the girls' camp 
    was the most fun, in that time, i had my own room and my own freetime, my both sisters were in the girls camp

    and three weeks i could felt like a rooster in the basket.  :D

  2. A few years ago, I surprisingly had the opportunity to fly in a FUJI/FA-200 AERO SUBARU.
    When I jumped into the cockpit, the pilot asked me if I had any flying experience and I told him that I only knew flying from the simulator.
    Shortly after we left the ground, he said to me, well, then you can fly yourself and let go of the yoke and said,

    fly an airfield circuit and try to find the runway.
    We had a very intense conversation about flying and after thirty minutes,

    as I started to land, he said maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to do the landing himself,    the scaredy cat. <_<:D

  3. On my many trips to Norway I once saw
    on the Lofoten Islands a huge moonfish right under our rowboat while fishing.
    On a fishing trawler trip I saw some sperm whales.
    On various hikes I often saw reindeers and some mooses 
    as well as a group of musk oxens.
    At the coast I could see puffins, gannets and a sea eagle.

     

    In germany as a little child I once fortuitously saw a
    beluga whale, which had obviously got lost in the river Rhine.

     

     

     

     

     

    And of course some "ex misses" as well :D
