Castle Wyher, Ettiswil, Lucerne, Switzerland Day Tour

We went to Castle Wyher (Schloss Wyher) to attend a general assembly.

Castle Wyher (Schloss Wyher) is a moated castle located in Ettiswil, Canton of Lucerne in Switzerland. Wyher Castle was residence to several lineages of lower nobility but it was the influential and rich families like Feer and Pfyffer which developed the castle complex.

Today, Wyher Castle is no longer a residence but a place which you can rent for any occasion.

Be careful with what you are writing on your blog

I watched the live session inside the court at The Hague when Mia Farrow was giving her testimony. Mia Farrow was asked with several questions. One of the sources of the questions during the interrogation was her blog.

The testimony has to do with the trial of the former Liberian President Charles Taylor who is being accused of war crimes which he denies.

Mia Farrow testified that Naomi Campbell said that Charles Taylor sent her men and gave her a diamond. Her testimony contradicts to that of Naomi Campbell who testified that she received two or three stones and did not know who sent them.

The above testimony of Mia Farrow about the diamond looked so simple but it was not in this case. The lawyer really asked her a lot of questions and even used her writings on her blog. As I see it, the lawyer would like to discredit her.

Mia Farrow is a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador. She has been writing on her blog about the plights of the African people in countries like Darfur (Sudan), Chad, Congo and Central African Republic (CAR).

While I was watching Mia Farrow being asked by the lawyer, I just thought that we must really be careful with what we are writing on our blog. No matter what, you will never know when your writings will be used against you.

We went to Belek in Turkey in Autumn 2009 for a golf vacation. We stayed at the Kempinski Hotel The Dome and played golf at the Antalya Golf Club.

Kempinski Hotel The Dome was a 5-star luxury golf, spa and thalasso resort hotel located in Belek, Serik, Antalya, Turkey.

We enjoyed our stay at Kempinski, so there is a possibility that we might go back there.
