Chris's Visit


Our friend Chris is here visiting! We have been lucky enough to have a lot of friends and family be able to come to Germany during the season. It has made being away from home so much easier. We've been eating out and visiting the town, mostly. Brendan has a game tomorrow night and on Sunday! Lets hope for two wins! :)

Brendan and Chris are going to see the Buchenwald Concentration Camp on Saturday (as I have been 5 times and will stay home this round!) and then we are going to attempt to go to Berlin on Monday. I really love that city! I am typically not a city person, but something about it is nice. I'm not intimidated and it is very easy to navigate. Not to mention the amazing history that it holds! I'm looking forward to going back.

Something that this experience has given me is a will to travel and explore. I was always scared to even go into a restaurant I wasn't familiar with and now we just pop in places and do our best with a menu written in German! I honestly do not think that I would have left the country if it hadn't been a must the first time. Now that I have, I feel like I can go and do anything! What a wonderful gift!
