My other news is that over the weekend it got so hot that I even got to use my brand new 3 euro swimming pool. Cool hey? Well, I know it's small and the conditions are kind of cramped there in the hallway, but I had fun!

Of course it's back to wearing jumpers again this week, but I'm sure it will get hot and stay hot soon. Won't it?

Hello everyone from Princess Sparkle!

I have just got back from a lovely holiday visiting my Zio in England. I loved hanging out with him and staying at his house which is right next to a cool park with swings and a roundabout.

While I was there Mama and Zio and I went to visit our friends Jon and Sarah and Harriet who live in a town called Fleckney. We had the best time there, they really looked after us, and Harriet let me play with all of her toys, which was really really nice.

They had a book called Princess Sparkle that I really liked so they gave it to me, and Sarah even gave me a skirt and jewels so I could dress up like Princess Sparkle too. Boy, do they know how to make a girl feel special.

Harriet let me try on her excellent Teddy Bear costume too. I entertained everyone by performing 'Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, Turn Around' over and over again.

This is me and Harriet on the roundabout. I think I might have been going a bit too slow for her!

I had a play date with Amy, the granddaughter of a very nice lady called Janet, who is friends with Zio and my mum. Janet drove us to Amy's house in a nice English village. Amy let me play with her toys and do drawing with her. I had lots of fun.

Hello, I couldn't resist putting up another photo of the blossoms because Mama and I really are enjoying looking at them every day. I especially like the pink ones. This is the Altstadt (old town) in Bonn, where we live.

This is me and Mama just cruising the streets. Don't look too closely, or you will see Mama is wearing orange ugg boots. In public! She is so embarrassing sometimes.

Hello, I wanted to show you a photo of my friend Carolyn. I met her at playgroup and she is lots of fun. She likes to smile and laugh a lot. She just had her first birthday so she is a bit littler than me, but I show her how to do things and she lets me play with her toys in return. She is learning English and German like me.

Spring has sprung

Hey it's Spring time here in Bonn and it is so beautiful. All last week the trees lining my street were covered in blossoms. The petals are mostly blown away now but I liked touching them and feeling how soft they were. Bonn seems so different with this change of season. There are outdoor tables at all the cafes and pubs, and everyone seems to be out on the street with big smiling faces.

I love the warmer weather because it means I get to go to the park more. I'm still not sure about playing with the other kids though. Sometimes I like it, but sometimes I don't.

Hello everyone!
Well I have just spent a wonderful week in Austria with Dada, Mama and my Zio Peter. We stayed in a town called Schladming in the Alps. As you can see, it was really beautiful there.

I really enjoyed the snow this time - I even had a go at snowboarding. I think it might have been a bit easier if we had a board my size though.

Sitting on Mama's lap seemed to work best. She seemed to like it too!

I have to say that Zio's snowmen are improving. I try to encourage him as much as I can.

On the way home we stopped in Salzburg for a couple of nights. It was really pretty there but Mama kept singing funny songs all the time about the hills being alive and stuff. Sometimes she is a bit silly.

Parade


Parade

Well it just gets better and better here in Germany. Today is Rosenmontag, it is part of the Karneval festival they celebrate before the beginning of Lent. They have a big parade and guess what? It went down our street! We could see it from our windows but we went down on the street so that we could shout "karmelle, karmelle" (which means lollies, lollies) and the people in the parade threw them at us. I got bonked in the head with a Kinder Surprise egg, but I didn't mind a bit.

You can see here how they throw the lollies out of the floats, and everyone scrambles to catch them.
