I have purchased a German Laptop.
At least the keyboard has the umlaut.
I had to download my Sony photo editing software in German which is not easy.
But hey, my German vocabulary is rapidly improving!
Check out the gorgeous Rhine and some scenes from beautiful Germany in mid-November.
Wurtzberg and the river Main.
Germany is lovely in late fall.
Cheers um Sie aus Deutschland!

These are gorgeous photos Cindy. I love them. 🙂
Danke mein Freund!
WOW! Fabulous Images……
Thank you, I had such a hard time with this post in German!!
Schöne! Schöne! Ja. I have to get there. My Dad was eight times in Germany and I never. He was with the job, but he promised he would take me one day 🙂
When you go, you will be very pleased that you did and then you will go again!
Someday… I’ll go to Germany
You will be so glad you did!
Germany certainly is magnificent in fall. I am impressed with your mastery of your new German computer.
It is only doable because I am somewhat familiar with computers. In truth it has been hard. Just doing this post will all the different German commands was difficult but I am catching on. I am sure I made mistakes….
The mistakes, if any, slipped by me. How about a lovely German phrase in your next post to show us the umlaut and the and the double S, and other wonders of your keyboard!
I love these pictures, Cindy. Beautiful! — Suzanne
So pleased you do! It was hard for me to get to the point of being able to post!
Willkommen in Deutschland! Lovely photos! 🙂
Danke mein Freund!
beautiful pics
So pleased you enjoyed them!
i love photography…
So do I!
Gutan Tag Cindy! Wow, Germany has plenty of breathtaking examples of design and architecture I see! I just love that terraced hill (which looks like something out of a storybook) and that grand cathedral. Thank you for sharing these exquisite images! ~Lynn
Germany is the land of fairy tale scenery! Be well dear Lynn <3
Great images, Cindy!
Danke!
Bitte schöen
Wonderful pictures Cindy. If German engineering is anything to go by, your laptop will go 100mph.for you.
xxx Huge hugs xxx
It will be fun to use when I get home and have the leisure to play around with it. It does spell checking in German which is not practical, laughing!
Not sure what’s more impressive, Germany in the fall or your skills with your new German laptop. 🙂 Your photos are gorgeous, I especially love the second one. Have fun!
Awwww your kindness is so appreciated! <3
Such beautiful photos. Thanks for sharing your travels.
Thank you more for coming along with me!
Germany indeed is beautiful, Cindy – strong, determined, mature and lovely lines and balance almost everywhere. Love the shots you made
What a beautiful and accurate description!
I have to wonder: did all these things have to be rebuilt or restored after WWII?
Many historical treasures were lost, but thankfully many still remain.
Wunderschoene Bilder 🙂
Danke schoen mein lieber Freund!
Another beautiful trip. What fantastic photos. 😀
Very kind & most appreciated!
So happy to see your post on my reader this morning. 🙂 What a relief, for me, too 🙂 I was thinking of you and your laptop… the whole weekend. Thank you for the beautiful post, Cindy!
You know full well what an effort it was to buy a laptop, switch as many language prompts as possible, install my Japanese photo editing software downloaded free online in a starbucks following prompts in German, and actually get out a post! Phewww……reminds me of grad school!
I actually thought about the language and downloading software that you might have to go through… 🙂 It’s amazing you got it and made it work!!
Thanks for the stunning set of images–feel as though I am there with you. Wow, good for you–a German laptop. Hope that it serves you well.
When I get home it will be super fun. Now it is a super big challenge!
I see you have worked your magic again.. nothing keeps a good woman down..xxxo
I hope that is true for all of them! <3 <3
Once again–your photos are beautiful. Have you considered putting together a book?
That would be fun! All I need is a publisher……me and 100,000 other people!
Wonderful shots 🙂
So kind and much appreciated!
That second photo with the terraces is begging for a fairy tale to begin….Es war einmal…..
One upon a time es war eine schöne Frau namens Cynthia, die die schönste Poesie geschrieben und hatte einen Freund namens Cindy, die in Deutschland unterwegs war.
Wunderbar!
Some great colours. I’m afraid were going wintry drab already over here. 🙂
I am very surprised by the fall colors too. I thought they would be long gone. There is a strange fall beauty here that is hard to describe.
A land worth keeping, may it never be destroyed.
Amen!
Schöne Fotos! Auch aus Würzburg (mit Umlaut und ohne t) – Deutsch ist einfach schwer, darüber klagte schon Mark Twain! Nicht aufgeben!
Ich werde nicht aufgeben! Es ist hart, aber ich habe Spaß! Beifall zu und danke mein Freund.
Wie kommt man als Amerikanerin eigentlich auf die Idee, Deutsch zu lernen?
We have 10 inches of wet snow in Denver suburbs. Enjoy. (What church is in the last picture?)
eeeeks, snow already! The Frauen Kirche, catholic church with glockenspiel in Nuremberg.
Reblogged this on Smorgasbord – Variety is the spice of life and commented:
Cindy Knoke having overcome laptop woes catches us up with her trip through Germany with some spectacular photography….wonderful.
You are the kindest friend Sally. Cheers & hugs~
Now you have the reason to learn or improve your German 🙂
Beautiful seasonal pictures!
Exactly & thank you!
Enjoy your new laptop and trip!
Beautiful pictures, Cindy!
Very pleased you enjoyed them!
Germany is the land of my ancestors on my father’s side so your pictures have a wonderful double meaning for me: history and beauty. 🙂
Oh, that is so lovely!
It’s all so colourful — the trees, the buildings, the sky. The UK is so grey and wet in comparison. Thank you for cheering me with your bright pictures 🙂
Thank you more for cheering me with your kind comment! <3
So glad you were able to find a suitable keyboard … when we were in Panama, I obtained a macbook to replace an old one, but didn’t realize it would have a Spanish keyboard, until I began making more typos that I care to admit to. I still have that unit, but only really use it for photoshop, now that I have a ‘real’ keyboard…
I am sure I am making errors too, but am so grateful to have made it this far!
That is how I felt about the Spanish Macbook, but I nearly did cartwheels when I got back to a ‘normal’ keyboard.
Amazing captures, Cindy… <3
Beautiful photos. Enjoy the trip and scenery. Have safe travel. P.S. Do you have to have all your texts and posts translated over to English before using or posting? Or does it automatically translate? It the laptop a German brand popular there? Hope you have good service with it.
WP operates normally in English, but all commands and computer prompts are in German. WP spell check is in German funnily enough.
Every picture a treasure!
You are the treasure, thank you!
You are so kind!
Stunning photos Cindy. I especially love the first one with the water’s reflection. And wow, a German keyboard, that must be a good learning curve. 🙂
So happy you are computered again 🙂 The photos are magnificent. I’ve always figured the only way I’d ever learn a language that is different from my own is to be totally immersed in the culture of the new language…learn and survive 🙂
That is exactly how I learned Spanish. I wish we were in Germany longer, so this would happen! I would like to spend three months here……
Oh how lovely that would be 🙂
<3
Wow, I’m practically drooling over these photographs. Such brilliant colors. Gorgeous, simply gorgeous.
You are a sweetheart Carrie,. Thank you and be well my friend~
Very beautiful photos Cindy. You should be able to make your settings in English and used it like that 🙂
Some I was able to change, but others not. It’s not as easy to change a computer’s programmed language in THAT language and then there is the keyboard!!
Well if I had no laptop I’d learn what I needed in German too. I wouldn’t be happy about it but I’d do it rather than be without. I’d be quite bereft without one.
Stunning photos as usual Cindy! Gorgeous.
Alison
So glad you got a new laptop. Well done in getting it all set up! I saw your post on my iPhone earlier and came back to it on my iMac. Wow – the colors really pop on my computer! So glad I visited again Cindy!
It works and your photos are stunning. I love the first photo and can just imagine sitting in a lawn chair on a warm day there relaxing and enjoying the water.
Gorgeous colors Cindy form our current grey winter here. Thanks for sharing them to brighten the day.
amazing as always and thank you for sharing a part of your adventures with us! Cheers!
Is that the sideways colon above the U? Das Eist Good! Is it cold there?
Cindy, you’re amazing! Lovely pictures, as always!
Beautiful pictures of autumn glory, Cindy! I’m sure you speak fluent German after this trip…particularly if you continue to use the laptop and the editing software 🙂
Love tagging along!!! Fabulous photos!
Why do I remember Germany being gray and dull in late fall? It must’ve been that heavy snow and cold temps the first year we were there. 🙂
Cindy, now I’m most impressed! I’d have gone without the laptop before purchasing one overseas — and trying to figure out how to make all the programs work right! Well done! I hadn’t realized Germany during the fall is so lovely!!
