Adventkalender: Dezember 4-9

I have missed a couple days because of travels, but here are some advent themed pictures to make up for that. I took so many picutures of Christmasy things I decided to include two picutres with each day that I missed and today.

Adventkalender: Dezember 3



Dezember 3



I will be collecting pictures for my Adventkalender, but because I now have the chance to travel this weekend and wifi might be difficult to find some days may be posted together. Once I come back I am sure that I will have plenty to write about.

Adventkalender: Dezember 1

Recently as I was shopping for groceries, I was getting myself some chocolate for my own Thanksgiving. I noticed something different in the candy section, Advent calendars. It is popular in Germany for children to have these calendars to count down the 24 days in December that lead to Christmas. Each day they open the "window" with the number that matches the day in the month. Behind the each "window" is either a chocolate or a small toy.

I will be having my own Advent calendar here on my blog in form of a "Christmasy" picture I have taken.

Sabbeth Sites: St. Vitus



A while ago I wanted to explore a nearby area that I had not yet been to. I thought that I was done seeing interesting sites for the day and so I started back towards the bus stop that I needed. It was then, immediately as I had determined there was nothing else new and interesting, that I found this church.

Sabbeth Sites: 永祚寺



The 永祚寺 (yǒngzuòsì) of 太原 (tàiyuán). They are the tallest twin pagodas in China.



Bells placed on the pagodas made the only sounds in the peaceful temple complex.

the steeper, shorter and narrower the path became.
