lake view cafe

This afternoon I enjoyed sitting with fellow writers Eugene, Ellen and Linda by Sortedams Sø - the lake with the black dam - outside Den Franske Cafe

I love the texture of water seen on a hot day with a digital camera


Copenhagen with Østerbrogade running along the dam to the left
the vanishing point at the break in the horse chestnut trees is "The Little Triangle" Lille Triangel

Ernie and Bert in Germany: Helping Preschool Children Learn for 30 Years
Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR) was the first broadcaster in the world to purchase the rights to the American format.

NDR has secured the rights until 2010. New episodes will continue to be shown on ARD every Sunday at 7.30 in the morning. However, daily repeats are now only to be found – in the morning and at midday – on the children’s channel “Ki.Ka”.
