Hallo from Deutschland !
Thursday and Friday were a blur and I am trying to get adjusted to the the time change here in Germany.
The last time I was in Germany was 30 year ago (argh - I hate showing my age 'that way'. My Dad took a transfer when I was in high school so my parents, younger sister and I moved to the Frankfurt/Weisbaden area for just about a year (my Dad's project ended and we moved right back into our old house). When we lived here, my sister and I went to Frankfurt International School (F.I.S.) and you would not believe how many people I have run into (in the 30 year since - geez, I have got to stop saying that number) who have been to F.I.S. I guess if you lived in MI, somehow got transferred to Germany - your parents worked for a car company and you went to FIS. The woman next to me on the plane - her husband went there as did her kids. They are all originally from MI. As my sister would say: Germany is a small country.
I can see that I will most likely be on the European diet while I am here (cafe, cheese, the smallest amount of bread possible, the smallest amount of chocolate possible and a large amount of German wine). And, walking. Mass amounts of walking.
The plan today was to go swimming but I got a late start (took a Tylenol PM to sleep but could barely wake up). Hopefully, we will go tomorrow. Tschus !
So glad you're having a good time, my friend! :)
