O.k., so here we go! After a couple of weeks preparations, packing, sending off all our stuff, a very nice good-bye-party we are on our way to JFK on Friday afternoon, 5\/28.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thunderstorms break lose, traffic as hell, but we make it in time with the limo to get the plane at the British Airways Terminal.<\/p>\n

We are having a last beer in NY at the gate, where we meet Sam, a very nice guy who also works in IT. What system he is working with? Lawson! Oh, god, the same system we have been struggling with for years, and they are still on version 7.2.3 as well…<\/p>\n

The flight itself passes uneventful, squeezed in the seats in the wooden class – unluckily not business as some other people can travel (right, Rainer?).<\/p>\n

Stopover in the morning at Manchester: gray sky, drizzle, cold and we see people eating blood pudding and sausage for breakfast. What a start… Another connection flight to D\u00fcsseldorf and Petra’s brother Ralph picks us up. But suddenly it is not Ralph alone, but a big welcoming committee of 10 people! half the family came from Bavaria and Berlin came to surprise us. Unbelievable, we are so tired that we can’t even react appropriately.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>We drive to the house of Petra’s father, beautiful weather, blue sky and sun, so we gonna have breakfast in the garden! How nice life can be – curing the jetlag in the shadow of old, beautiful trees! In the evening excursion to the old center of D\u00fcsseldorf, famous for it’s local beer bars and good restaurants, where we are up to asparagus (it’s the season!) and delicious fish dishes.<\/p>\n

Such a warm welcome helps so much with such a move!\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
