my toys November 2007 i've rented quite a few sixt cars. lately i tend to get upgrades....me like!
 
wien atp tennis final 13-14 October 2007 paula and i spent saturday and sunday in vienna. after seeing the antics and brilliance of world #3 tennis player djokovic during the usa open, i just had to see him in action live. after reading that he would play in vienna, i hypnotically bought two tickets for the final. lucky us, we managed to get row 3 seats!
 
paula's move to munich 1 October 2007 i went to collect my girl in helsinki. collecting in the sense helping her move to our flat in munich. with our transporter/van rental, i drove from munich to rostock, caught a ferry to gedser (denmark), continued driving to stockholm, caught a ferry from stockholm to turku (finland) and drove the last bit from turku to helsinki. the trip back was a bit more laid back, catching a ferry from Helsinki to Travemunde (Germany) and driving the home stretch to munich.
 
oktoberfest 22 September 2007 the world's largest folk festival kicked off again. i just had to take a few pictures...sober that is ;-)
 
south africa vs england 14 - 15 September 2007 i went to see the live rugby world cup pool match between south african springbokke and england in paris, stade de france!

vienna, austria 14 July 2007 i was in austria for the weekend which included a visit to vienna on saturday to meet up with my mate tolis. together with frasier, we hit the city with our maps and cameras....bloody tourists!
 
pros pro electronic TX-500N 16 June 2007 my first restringing machine is a plain drop weight type machine. it is worn out. then again it is over 15yrs old. electronic machine prices have sunken to an all time low. the benefit with electronic machines is that they are the most accurate of restringing machines. considering i break my strings so regularly, i just to had to get one. here's me restringing for the first time with tx-500n!
 
montreal 7 - 12 June 2007 jukka and i visited montreal (canada), especially for the f1 grand prix!
 
bmw atp open 6 May 2007 thanks to paula's christmas present, i was able to watch the championship finals between philipp kohlschreiber & mikhail youzhny here in munich at the bmw open. the pics were taken with yeptha's nokia N95. doh, i didn't have my camera with me.
 
ammersee cycle route 14 April 2007 ingo, stefan and i did a close to 80km bicycle route to and around the ammersee. ammersee is a lake south west of munich. considering it is only april, the weather could not have been any better. hats off to stefan! he took a dip in the icey ammersee....melted snow fresh from the alps.
 
bbq by the isar 12 April 2007 we were asked to leave work for the day due to an office relocation. michi, the genius, organized bbq & beers by the isar (river that runs through Munich). what a brilliant way to start the summer! a shame that my camera broke down after the 4th pic!
