Our Friend Alex

I would like you to meet our very good friend Alex. He and his wife Manuela and daughter Jennifer live next door to us in Germany. Alex knows everything and everyone and is a great friend to have, particularly when you are a doofy American who can't even speak the language. He is the local volunteer fire-chief and here he demonstrates his skill at walking on a rope in the Austrian Alps. I'm not quite sure how valuable this skill really is, but it was fun.
