percivalI sent my last five Christmas cards today (so some will be late). I haven't been home since December 8. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
scieppan's card reached me before that date - thank you! If you are wondering whether your card has reached me, I will post a longer update on December 27, when we are back. This trip to Germany has been fairly busy, what with trips to see friends and family, and a long weekend in Berlin (work related; I had two meetings and gave a talk, which I also had to prepare). Fortunately, the pressure is off now and our little family can relax and settle into the Christmas spirit.
I don't know whether I will post again before Christmas, so I will leave you with a picture and a factoid. First the picture:
While we were in Berlin, Hanukkah was all over the city, a very visible celebration by the Jewish community.
And now the factoid. According to the German press, the title of the new Harry Potter is:
HARRY POTTER UND DIE HEILIGEN DES TODES
(Harry Potter and the Saints of Death). Interesting translation of Deathly Hollows - JKR, is there something you aren't telling us?
Friends-locked baby picture Christmas post coming up next ...
