Click on the images in order to see more… It’s now almost one month since our wedding . It was a special time, of course, one which we will always remember. The highlight was the day of our wedding, June 21, 2008, but as a matter of fact our wedding lasted longer than just one day

. It started when John and Simone arrived on June 17 and ended with Jean-Pierre’s departure on July 8. (more…)

A wedding should be the most beautiful day in the lives of the newly weds. One 21 June 2008 Sylvia and I experienced that this is not only wishful thinking. We have had our day of days – one we will never forget. But this would not have been possible without our guests. Therefore, we would like to thank all of you who have been there with us for coming, for celebrating, for your presents. Thank you so much, it was an honor for us to have you there. We hope that you had a great and memorable day. Thank you, again, for your generosity.

We have had guests from the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, the United States and Australia . They came a long way to be there that afternoon. I hope you have enjoyed the stay and again thanks for following our invitation.

Thank you Franz Hierzer for marrying us. I know you received a lot of flack for coming to the vineyard but I think it was worth the trouble. This is greatly appreciated.

A big thank you goes out to our parents for their support and being there for us, making sure that we grow. Thanks here especially to my mother, my father and Stefan, my brother, for offering their beautiful vineyard for the wedding ceremony, for their preparation efforts.

I am lacking behind with posting the pictures . We have a lot! And they are just beautiful. I have just uploaded the first wave of photos, taken by Stefan, to my flickr account . They are from the wedding ceremony in the afternoon and from the Agape which followed our wedding. You can see the pictures here.

More photos will be uploaded soon, including those from the reception at Georgi-Schlössl in the afternoon and evening.

As June 21 is drawing near, I am sure the news have spread . For those few who have not heard it yet, here’s the scoop: Sylvia and I are getting married on Midsummer’s Night . We met for the first time in October 2004 and again in December 2004. Since January 4, 2005 we are a couple and got engaged on (more…)

It is day 3 after the marathon and I am slowly recovering from the strenuous run on Sunday . My muscles have suffered especially from the last six kilometers, which I covered with the 11th fastest time overall. Only a few pro runners were faster.. . (+ more pics) (more…)

I have posted photos from the marathon on Flickr.

Obviously, this was a good day . Of course, I am really happy with my performance but what was really great was the support and incredible response from my friends. I received so many calls and sms. This means a lot to me.
Simone called from Melbourne, John phoned me from Rome, Erwin and Christian congratulated, the Eichkitz family wrote a breakfast SMS, Klaus called, Martin smsed me. That’s only a few . Thank you to all.

A big, big thank you goes to Maria (Martin’s partner) for taking photos and Martin (Hackl) for riding along with his bike and supplying me with drinks and gel . Without him, I doubt whether this would have been possible. Thanks Georg for your fantastic training plans and your pro advise. Your tips are invaluable. Last not least, I’d like to thank Sylvia for her understanding and patience while I am out there running. I love you, Stadtkatze!
