That is a nice selection of countries we got here. Another German? Must go and check out her blog!
Oh, btw, I totally like the mascot. Too cute! I think I'll snag it for my blog sidebar as well.
I like the mascot :) And I'll be sure to check all those other blogs.. I can't believe I hadn't heard of so many of them.
