Using this Blog

We just want to point out a couple of features on this blog. On the right sidebar you will notice a heading that says "Pictures." Beneath the heading is a URL (internet link) that links to our pictures on Picasaweb. You can access all of our pictures by clicking on this link. The beauty of this site is that you will not need a user name or password to view pictures.

Below the Pictures link is the "Archive" which will grow as we post more about our year in Germany. The purpose of this feature is to allow you to access old blog posts. For example, if you are experiencing a post New Year's Eve party hangover and have a sudden urge to read our description of the drunken hoards at Oktoberfest, just click on the "October" link to view all blog posts from that month.

Finally, you can post comments to all blog entries that we publish on the website. So, if you want to tell us how stupid we look wearing Lederhosen or a Dirndl, just click on the "Comment" link at the end of the blog entry.
