Vacation 2013 - part 1: Dresden

For my 50th birthday we planned a nice trip ;-)

On January 29th we went to Dresden (Germany), main goal was a visit to the Karl May museum in Radebeul. I have always loved Karl Mays books. I have read over and over the 50 books translated in Dutch. At the moment I am re-reading some of them again.

It was great to visit the house of my childhood hero. The house is still as Karl May left it. In the garden is a big log cabn with much information about indian tribes at the time Karl May wrote about them.

You can view my own photo's of the Karl May museam and Dresden here.
