nymphenburg castle + park, munich

it is not a normal winter, is it? well, someone destroyed the climate as we knew it before, isn't it? was it the sun with perhaps higher activity as before or we humans with burning all that oil, gas, coal,  forests ... with heat through nuclear energy, wars ... leading rivers underground or straighten them for water transport, draining swamps, ... changing meadows, forests, mangroves into cities with black roads and houses with (hot) roofs from copper / zinc ... it is so sad 😟 ... well, maybe we will start planting trees and stop the destruction of our nature, won't we?

even if i wouldn't call it a winter walk, we have had nice time and beautiful sky (skies?) in the nymphenburg castle's park in munich (münchen). enjoy few pictures:

two of us. who is the real santa claus?

santa santa ... merry xmas, dear friends :-)

friends, i have been fighting all the year for peace, freedom, democracy and thus against the system i.e. against the current paper money mafia, against the undustrial-military-complex, against the corrupt politics and the like .... well, there should be also some joy in life, isnt it? so let's enjoy your xmas and let's hope these santas will improve your mood

ok, i'll try to pre-select the query for you, enjoy and yes, after the result list opens, just chose picture menu ...

mr. market likes me + my stocks; merry xmas :)

i had to remove the original picture due to google ad sense policies, so here is just the link to it: here

why? just look at my top 3 positions yesterday:

• scorpio mining +4.84%
• novagold +15.24% on a news message, which IMO is not soooo bombastic (NovaGold Resources Inc. (NG) today announced that it has entered into an agreement to purchase a 100% interest in the Ambler property in northern Alaska, which hosts the high-grade copper-zinc-gold-silver Arctic deposit.). well, novagold is my new #1
• u.s. gold +11.30% no news, my guess? i think the folks out there recognized that u.s. gold is not 100% the same as GOLD itself and therefore there is no need to 'send' us gold from $3.47 a share to $2.25 a share only because gold went from $1,200 to $1,100 => ??? => any other opinion out there?

of course, on a day when the top dogs perform like crazy, my portfolio reached a new all-time-high :-)

thx for this nice xmas gift, mr. market, thx!
