Today's post is in honor of my brother Henrik, who is turning 50. For some it might seem to be a lot and it is, but when I think of him and what his is capable to, it is not, and I truly admire him for his lifestyle. He and his wife has for the last maybe 10 years run one or more marathons each year; in Berlin, Paris, København, Dresden and even on the island of Bornholm they have done it, and I'm sure that they will continue for many years ahead. They both run over 100 kilometers a month, and my brother is the fastest runner I have ever tried to follow, and if he didn't slow down, just not to break my own confidence, I would never have thought that I was a runner too. But compared to him, I'm not. Today his turns 50 and hereby, to all the world, I want to congratulate and pay his tribute as he is the best brother I could possible wish. It is not that we are so close, as I have been away from Denmark for over 10 years now, but when I come back on a visit, he and his family is always there, as if I was a best friend. And I really appreciate that, like I appreciate that he and his family always has come to visit me where ever I were, and also -like me- lost their heart to Dresden, which they visit for quite some times, and to where I am sure they will go again even I'm not living there anymore. Henrik; congratulations with your 50 years, and promise me to keep the way you are now, then you will have plenty more to go, and even also appreciate it. Please could everybody who knows my brother Henrik -or just have met him once or twice- write a comment on his behalf here beneath and if he do not read it him self, I will let him know. Please. Henrik længe leve, Hurra. Kærlig hilsen din lillebror.
Welcome to the Dresden - Hong Kong blog site. This site is not intended to be taken too seriously and is not really for any purpose, except to keep folks we know a little bit informed about life in Hong Kong. The site will be written in three languages; English, German and Danish and you will never know what to expect, sorry if you don't understand everything, but please try later again, because maybe our mood will be in your language next time, or you could practice your language skills here on this site and maybe even learn something. When you scroll down you can read older posts and you will find our photo albums, which often gets updated with new stuff we find on our way. You are welcome to post comments to the posts, and also to take part in the polls, which we sometimes will be put on to this side to increase the service to our readers. On this site you will never find any pictures of naked women or men having fun, and sorry for that bit, but it is only to see if the words have any influence on the numbers of visitors to the site; Naked women.
