This weekend we play host to a handful of Austrians, the family of my Brotherinlaw’s wife<\/a>. Her daughter and son in law, her grandson, her soninlaw’s brother and girlfriend. They have chosen to stay at a hotel rather than Chez Og, being as we have one bathroom, and I don’t blame them. They’re also quite young, and I suspect the idea of sleeping in a house with a bunch of old farts snoring away probably isn’t their idea of romance. Don’t blame them. <\/p>\n

Anyway, they’re a hoot. They saw my collection and immediately wanted to go shooting, even the youngest (Maximillien, 5) got a bit on the daughter’s Cricket and made it VERY clear he’d like to go shooting. I hope they come again at a time when I can make that happen, they are certainly always welcome. <\/p>\n

Anyway, they have their own websites! Here’s one<\/a>, and here’s<\/a> the other. Both have been run through babelfish, and are moderately horrid translations, so if you read German, please remove the babelfish and read them in the original.<\/p>\n

Here’s a picture of them in a Port Huron Denny’s.

they have been great fun to be around, though they’re making the most of their sightseeing opportunities, and despite the language barrier, we are having a good time in the evening eating and drinking and talking. My daughter is in love with the little one, Maxi. They went to Chicago today and played and played, and I suspect the daughter will be sad to see him go. <\/p>\n

If this writing sounds stilted I’ve tried to tailor it so they could read it’s translation and make some sense of it. <\/p>\n

Update: Links fixed. Try opening the links and then going to babelfish for translation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
