Hi Zac,
my apprentice is at school till February 2024. That means that now I have some time for myself and I have taken the rest of the week off. So I might be even less online in the next couple of days, because I want to make a short trip towards the south, maybe Italy or Croatia or somewhere else - I haven't decided yet 😉
Yep, you're completely right - who would have thought he would say "no"? 😂 !LOLZ
That's one reason why we have to have Winter tires on the car when the weather conditions are frosty or snowy 😉 If you have an accident on ice or snow and your tires are for Summer only, the insurance will not pay.
I'll tell my mom that she will be the star in such a museum ... she's shrinking and below 1.50 meters already 😆
As said in the beginning - I have had a very busy, but short week, because it's already over 😁 and I'm scared that on Monday my desk will be covered by work 😅
Sending !PIZZA and !LUV as always 😉

Wow! You certainly deserve this break, ten times over my friend. And if your boss asks why you want to take leave, just tell him that I gave you permission. I hope that you will find a wonderful new spot in the country that you will end up in.
Well, one thing I know, bosses are like that. They usually say no before they say yes. 😊 !LOLZ
We don't have winter and summer tires here, because we have no snow here. But, when an oil tanker tips on the road, or in heavy rains, the roads can get very slippery. Especially, during hail storms or on dirt roads. One always struggles to get insurance payments here. 😉
My goodness. We went to a shop today, and there were five little Dachshunds that came to the table where we were sitting. The owner came over to take the smallest one away, and he told us that she is under quarantine, as she is on heat and the other bigger ones were her pups that are now adults. I will show you the dogs in one of my posts.
Haha. I don't think your mom will be very impressed if you tell her that she will be featured in a dwarf museum. 🙄
Yeah, you will indeed have a mountain of work when you return, and your apprentice will still be gone. We will have to pray for you. 🙏🏾
Cheers and thanks.
Hi Zac,
I ended up in the Italian Dolomites and I have found a little gem that I will certainly visit again: there were signs that you shouldn't carry on hiking because it's too dangerous, and that was an invitation to me, of course 😂 !LOLZ And it was a bit dangerous at places, but after about 1.5 hours I reached the end of a gorge where I found a lovely waterfall which I liked more than the waterfalls I have come for.

My boss knows that I need some days off and that I need to consume the rest of my vacation days from 2021. And after this week I'll still have 6 weeks left from 2022 which I'll consume in 2024...
The Dachshund is called "Dackel" here and they are lovely little guys 😀
Haha, my mom will definitely get locked up in that museum, because she has again crashed their car while she was parking it at home, and she doesn't know how it happened 🫣
You don't need to pray for me, because nothing anyone could do would make the mountain of work smaller 😅

Hi Hannes,
you see, a sign says that it is dangerous, and you think that it's dangerous to stop the hike. That's why we call you a mountain goat 😜 !LOLZ
That was certainly a great and beautiful reward that you found at the end of the hike my friend.
Wow! That's a month and a half of holidays and I presume that you have to take it all, before the holidays of the new year gets added? So, if not, then you can continue to stash the holidays and take a 2 year holiday leading up to your retirement 😉
Dackel sounds good and yes, they are great little dogs 😊
That's easy to fix Hannes, simply put 2 more pillows on the driver's seat so your mom can sit higher in the car to see the road 🤣🤣🤣
Again easy to fix my friend. Take your 6 weeks leave before your apprentice comes back, as then she can help with the mountain of work 😂
Cheers and thanks.

Hi Zac,
there was a path, at least kind of a path, and sometimes I even go where there's no path ... and get lost 😂 !LOLZ
That's my plan: to keep 2 years of vacation days and take these 3 months right before I retire, so I can leave by May 2027 ... or earlier if I win in the Lottery 😜
Unfortunately, until then I can't take more than 2 weeks at once, unless the 2 new co-workers we will get in January or February 2024 will learn fast and thus will be able to work alone sooner than I think.
Yesterday I have been driving around all day long and because it was heavily raining everywhere I took only two photos right before I returned back home. The sky was completely in pink, but only for a few minutes, and I have found a place to stop and get out of the car just seconds before the colors were completely gone:

Are you guys still on the road? If so, I hope you're having great fun, my friend, and if not, I wish you a wonderful weekend 👍🌞

Hi Hannes,
You? A mountain goat getting lost? Impossible, as you will always find your way back 😜 !LOLZ
It seems like we are on the same wavelength, as the accumulated leave will come in very handy before your retire date. Just a pity that you add more leave days to it. 😉
Now here's the thing with me my friend, even if I could, I cannot take 2 weeks off, as even after 4 days I become bored. Maybe it's because of the last 22 years at Papillon, as we could only take a few off every year. So now it's more than enough for me.
I really hope that the two new co-workers will be fast learners, but something tells me that it will not be that easy. But we can always hope 🙏
Wow! You got those beauties just in time, as the pink colors signify that it is the last of the sunset and soon all will turn into a dark grey. But you know this of course 😀
Lovely photos my friend.
We are home now Hannes, and it was a very interesting and relaxing break. I will do a post of the roads back tomorrow, and then during the week I will continue to post some other sights.
I hope that your weekend is also going very well 🙂
Cheers and thanks.
Hi Zac,
oh, I can't even tell you how often I got lost when I tried to find new places or when I thought that I'd be faster on another path ... but I always found my way in the end ... or a way back to the start 🤣 !LOLZ
The problem is that you have to consume your vacation days until the end of the following year, but during the Pandemic they have changed the rules, so you have been able to keep two years ... until the end of 2023 what means I would have to consume my 2022 days until the end of this year if I had time. I'll try to go for a few days in the next weeks, but the rest will have to wait till 2024.
I would love to take 3 or more weeks off, but I think I wouldn't come back after such a long time 😉
If you have your own work and should additionally teach two new colleagues, you can imagine that it's not going to be easy 😅
Thanks that you like the images, Zac, but I wished I would have been there only 10 minutes earlier - the whole sky was pink.
I've been driving around, but didn't take a lot of images, especially no image that I really like, but all in all my weekend has been okay and today was as busy as expected😱
As said in another reply, it's great that you have had a good time during these few days, and I am sure you should have such breaks more often ... just relax and forget the stressful life at home, my friend 😊

Hi Hannes,
As I said before, an Austrian mountain goat will always find his way back 😜 !LOLZ
So, as I understand it, the 2 year period to save your holidays will fall away after 2023. If so, then this sucks as they are saying that the Covid situation will only be restored after another 5 years.
Hahaha, 3 weeks are like a year's absence, and I cannot blame you for not coming back 🤣
Sounds like a bit of a nightmare as one new student is bad, but 2 will give you much headaches, and plus you have to do your own work. What we had at Olivetti when I worked there many years ago, was that any new students had to go to the Olivetti college first, to be taught about the work in which division that they wanted to work in. Maybe you guys must also think about something like this? 😉
Yep! I saw that it was the last of the pink, and you are right, as only 10 minutes earlier, it would have been blazed across the sky for all to see. Btw. When we have pink clouds at sunset, it means that the next day will be hot. 🙂
So, that means that you didn't do any editing and you rather went out to drive around. But be it as it may, you had a good weekend and that's all that counts 👍
Short breaks are scarce my friend, as it all depends on affordability. We often take long day drives there and back, but now with the astronomical price of petrol, this is also scarce.
Over the 22 years at Papillon we have learned to do without, be we should have given more consideration for the health issues. Too late now to cry 😢
Thank you for the care and blessings to you and the family.
