After planning long time we could make this travel. To celebrate the 70th birth day of my beloved wife Gertrud Poerba on 19 of July 2012 , we make a journey to Munich where she grew up, at her home town in Bogenhausen.

Arrrriving at Frankfurt Airport: go go go |
Arrival in Frankfurt/M
On 23rd Juni 2012 our 12-person-traveling-group arrived in Frankfurt/M and was picked up by Family Hartmann, Dr Ulrich and my niece Merly Hartmann. We went by a bus and a VW Sedan to Eschborn, to the house of my old friend Rusdin Smbajak. It was a lovely gathering with the family and my niece Caroline with her husband Arie Kist whoe live in Holland were there too.

With her and her husband we went to Schloss Heidelberg: a beautiful panorama of Heidelberg and Neckar River in a bright sommer afternoon.
In the evening we visit my old friend Sarmen Saragih and his family in Rauenberg near Heidelberg. What a wonderful meeting of all of us together in the beautiful garden.
Late afternoon we arrived in Nagold Am Schlossberg where Merly and Uli live. I know this place since long time when I visit them many times. But with all my sieblings, 12 persons plus Caroline and Arie, it was really a full house.
