Bucherhallen im Hamburg

-
Bucherhallen is the German word for Libraries.
Hamburg's Main Library is in the city center
There are 32 branches within Hamburg's districts. and they each have something to offer. Within these 32 branches, there is a special children's library with sections for young ones. two mobile libraries, and a central library (near the main railway station).

What I like most is that they have different activities for kids during school holidays. Whether it's crafts, rhyme time, or simply reading out loud to them; you can take your children to be entertained for a while when they're not in school.

Some (if not most) libraries have a little kids corner within the children's book section for the little kids to play/write on the chalkboard/sit to read in..

The libraries in Hamburg offer different programs for just about anyone, some of the more popular ones are: 
- Dialog in German
- Storybook Cinema
- Exhibitions

Cost: to enter free, to check out the any media you need to become a member.
Address (for the main library): Hühnerposten 1 (Eingang: Arno-Schmidt-Platz), 20097 Hamburg

     Hi Everyone! it's been a while since i posted anything to my blog, and i opened blogger today and found a couple of drafts, this one I had done as a guest post on a friends blog and figured I'd post it here to! Have you been following along on instagram? I post on my stories almost daily and it's so much fun for me!    List the top 5 cities you've visited and why. I've already done a post on this, 5 Places I'd like to revisit go check it out and tell me if we have any cities in common! What do you like doing in your spare time? I enjoy spending time on the computer and watching stuff on Netflix. when I have time I like challenging myself to do puzzles. What are you reading?

I read Rachel's post: liveblogging  a 12 hour flight to Bangkok and loved it.. granted not every flight is a good one but I figured I'd give this a go and try doing a similar post. I decided to record happenings on my most recent flight, even thought it was less than eight hours it seemed to go okayish and so i'm sharing it with you today. Here's how my flight went down: Before the flight, we were kind of worried about not having any in-flight entertainment since we booked our transatlantic flight with eurowings. 13:03 Board the plane. We get happy the plane does have in flight entertainment. We also noticed that every seat has a water bottle. Sadly only the ones with extra leg room get a blanket/pillow. 13:17  Find out the in flight entertainment requires a 9,99€ payment. 13:44  Time for the safety procedure demo. 13:53  Prepare for take off, then eventually take off. 13:56  Kid behind me says: "guck mal da unten die kleinen Autos." ...

Looking back at 2016

Happy New Year! 2016 was a year full of visitors and travels of all sorts for us. Last year’s Christmas was spent in Charlotte, with Pablo’s family (and my mom), we also welcomed 2016 there only to take a road trip to Orlando on January 1 st .  We visited WDW, Epcot, Universal Studios, and Island of Adventure. Once we got back to Germany we spent some time getting back to a routine. We took a mini trip over Valentine’s day weekend with our first visitor of the year. Pablo’s oldest brother came to Sweden for work and then took a couple of extra days to visit us. We took our second trip of the year and visited Berlin and Schwerin. March was spent in Hamburg, we spent Easter with other English-speaking moms at a park. We had a laid-back time here not worrying about waking up early to go to school. In April, we bought our first DSLR, it’s a canon 30d and I’m enjoying capturing moments with it. A friend of mine (and friends of his) celebrated their birthdays with ...
