    I just love your vlogs, Kim! I feel like we’re getting to know you a little bit more and about the things you like to see and do. You’re such a sweet person and I can see how much fun you’d be to be around.
    Loved seeing the park - what a beautiful place! I’d be going there often to take a stroll, then sit and read or do needlework - or even just people watch - and recharge my batteries. It’s big enough that you could pick a new spot to sit every time until you find your favorites! And I’ll bet your dogs would enjoy exploring after their baths, too!
    It looks like an interesting collection of shops and restaurants across the street. And you just HAVE to take us with you next time you go to the dog wash! Though how you’d do that and film, too, I have no idea! On second thought, that actually sounds impossible without extra equipment...
    Great job, Kim! Keep on sharing with us and we’ll keep watching! I think you’ve discovered a hidden talent! 💕

    When i was watching this I thought Kaleb looks a bit down as he seemed to be somewhere else. After watching todays 2nd empire vlog i can see why. Don't let the trolls get you down, these people are not worth wasting your time on, they have nothing better to do in their lives that to pull other people down. you both are doing a great job, no one said it was gonna be easy, you'll have days when you think "why do I bother" and days when things are going great but the pair of you will get there in the end. stick with it Kim and Kaleb and as me Mam used to say " it all comes out in the wash in the end ". :-)

    Also, when the time comes that you get an espresso machine, you and Kaleb should dress in high Victorian fashion and do some goofy upper crust video introducing it.

      Ive been in a few. When i was staying in Marburg my buddies flat was in an apartment building from the mid 1800s i think. The bar we would go to was in the cellar of an 800 year old building. I know the city is somewhat famous for the St. Elizabeth Church which i was told was the inspiration for the Köln Dom. I ve in many homes but because they were friends homes or friends of friends homes i never really asked the age of any of them. I miss Germany. I cant wait to go back. ill need to brush up on my german again though.

    If you want a great espresso machine just get a nespresso one (with the original capsules though, the 3rd party one are usually garbage and will damage the machine)

    • @secondempirestrikesbackvlo2578
      @secondempirestrikesbackvlo2578  3 года назад +2

      That sounds cool but those pods are so wasteful! Also I’ve had a keurig before and the water went through so quickly the coffee always seemed watered down. I’ve worked at places where I had to use an espresso machine so I know how to do it. They’re just a little pricey but it’s something we’re willing to splurge on.
