Indeed, Master Thingol. – And I’m sure that you will host him next after he will have left Germany.
So far I’m just waiting for the pictures Master Protozeus promised to take some days ago.March 12, 2014 at 5:44 pm #30034…. you’re made a lot of great pictures of Elrond on having fun with your valuable collection of figures Master tree, but all of them are still on this topic… you should find “few minutes” and put them into a TE gallery..
March 13, 2014 at 5:15 pm #30038Well, thank you for the compliment, Master Thingol. But I think I posted too many pics of Elrond’s stay at my place already.
Maybe I was wrong about this and didn’t place them in that Gallery you mentioned, wherever that is. Sorry, but I’m still not that familar or even skilled with such things. I’ll have a look and try to find out.March 13, 2014 at 7:17 pm #30041Tavelling Elrond is talking and telling about his travels with his companions
Galadriel M1, Elrond M2, Celeborn and Gandalf the Grey at the moment on my kitchen window shelf.
He has much to tell, really… Aragorn and Arwen are listening too.
Beside them sits Bilbo with his Red Book of the West March and is writing many lines into it….March 16, 2014 at 6:34 pm #30058Halbarad II wrote:Hi Folks!Is there any reference that Elrond has been at all places of the list on the first page here?
Then I think there should be a bit more pictures of the visits!
Come on fellow collectors, show the pictures to us all!Well, I do have a couple of pictures of Elrond while staying at my home 6 years ago but…
I tried to uploade them to the site without success as I can not create an album called “Elrond visting Ori” Can any one help?
March 16, 2014 at 11:49 pm #30059I think you don´t have to creae a seperate album, Master Ori.
Just put your pictures inside this thread. It´s meant to be. Other fellows just did it that way.March 18, 2014 at 10:06 pm #30072OK, here they go:
More tan six years ago. By the way, the casttle is not were I live, just in case someone thought. You know dwarves allways live underground.
March 18, 2014 at 10:18 pm #30073Elrond looks taller than I remember him.
March 19, 2014 at 7:22 am #30075SO NICE!
March 19, 2014 at 8:05 am #30077wonderful travel
March 19, 2014 at 8:18 am #30079You should put this pictures into a TE gallery….
April 1, 2014 at 9:54 pm #30171Here a short update about travelling Elrond’s Adventures:
[imgz url=http://mmp.faerylands.eu/uploads/548_forgetmenots.jpg]http://mmp.faerylands.eu/uploads/thumbs/548_forgetmenots.jpg[/imgz]
He has visited the greenhouses where Halbarad II. spend some years of his youth,
and has disussed a lot about flowers and herbs with Gandalf the Grey, whom he has met there.
the weather was very nice and all kind of spring flowers were brightly blooming in the greenhouses and outside.
(Pictures will follow)
Travelling Elrond made quite a good impression to the family
of your collector fellow Halbarad II., as they learned about his travels. :o)Some days later Elrond took his first longer journey southwards in Germany,
the Black Forest on his left hand side, and the mighty Rhine river on the right side.
This great Stream he crossed with Halbarad II. and Aresius the wizard.
The Rhine River is likewise the Borderline to our neighbour Country France.
We travelled into the lovely countryside of Alsace and the aim was a very interesting big building that is named “CITE DU TRAIN”
which containes a huge and wonderful collection of big modern and not so modern machines
that work with fire and water, producing powerful steam, and some working by Diesel fuel and Electricity.[imgz url=http://mmp.faerylands.eu/uploads/548_steam_elrond.jpg]http://mmp.faerylands.eu/uploads/thumbs/548_steam_elrond.jpg[/imgz]
Elrond was very impressed by the great steam engines that travelled once on rails.
He got a nice solution about that strange sentence in “a long-expected party” in the Red Book of the Westmarch:
“…the (Firework)Dragon passed like an EXPRESS TRAIN, turned a somersault, and burst over Bywater with a deafening explosion…”
What’s an express train? He always wondered, now Elrond knows!

where is Elrond?

Tiny miniature, huge steel engine!Last sunday Elrond travelled with Halbarad II. and his friend Gandalf the Grey near the City of Heidelberg,
but they decided to have a look on the City first from the height:
There is a wonderful ridge of woody hill tops on the northern side of the Neckar River,
which flows through Heidelberg.
And on the southernmost hill top there are some very beautiful and interesting places like towers and ruins in the woods.
So Halbarad the Ranger went first to this place.
Elrond liked it very much to discover the ancient traces of human (celtic and germanic ) settlements in germnay,
and later the christians who build a formidable monastry up on the height.
Pity nowadays the monastery of Saint Michael lays in ruins like it’s smaller fellow, Saint Stephans cloister…
with stones of the remaining walls of the smaller cloister people build a tower with a very nice view down the valley to the city.…and also there is another very strange huge construction on that hill top, which is very impressive if you stand before, or inside it,
but the time when it was constructed is unfortunedly connected with the darkest time period of the Country of Germany,
when it was ruled by a man or group of brown dressed people with very strange delusions of grandeur.
The place is named “Thingstaette” like the Thing of the Ents in LotR and it’s shaped like an ancient amphittheatre.
The purpose was to be a place of meeting and instructing of very much people.
But the only time when those mad people used it was it’s opening.
fortunetly nowadays it is normally a quiet and peaceful place for weekend trips.
Sometimes there are festivals of culture and music in it, but the facilities are very poor up there, no restrooms
just one little Inn for people taking a walk and cyclists. and the road is in a bad condition.
And most of the vistors of Heidelberg don’t have the time to go up there or even know about those places.
So Halbarad thought it is good to show this place to Elrond (and all collector fellows, connected with his travels)
(pictures will follow)…and Master Elrond had a very weird encouter with a really strange tree spirit… wait and see! ,o)
Many greetings from travelling Elrond to all collector fellows out there!
April 2, 2014 at 6:27 am #30172Very nice trip Master Ranger.
And I know well the heights of Heidelberg (a long and hard walk from river to the top, at least for me) and understand the mightiness view on the castle and your nice city Elrond cough from the terrace of the small tower.I hope one day Master Elrond will be also able to visit my area.
April 2, 2014 at 12:54 pm #30173That sounds good, Master Halbarad II. Thanks for the greetings. I’m looking forward to the pictures.
April 8, 2014 at 10:11 pm #30231How do I get my pictures in here?
like Ori.can anybody give me a hand?
April 8, 2014 at 11:29 pm #30232Absolutely: yiu have to take the “upload image” button at the very top of this site.
you chose your data and push the “sumit” button. After a while- it depends of course on your data size- an “instruction” follows:
“copy and paste the following . . . “.
Usually that should be very easy . . .
Good luck, Master H.Wolf !April 9, 2014 at 7:00 am #30234In my case I used an external source called photobucket where you upload the pictures and then you just have to paste here the link.
April 10, 2014 at 2:41 pm #30250This is what I call “”real expertise”… this is great Master ranger of the Blackforrest ! I see that Elrond has not spent a boring time…. I also hope that we will see soon many great photos from your part of your homeland !
