Sept 15, 2005

Well, it has been a while since I've posted anything. We went to Heidelberg over Labor day weekend. We walked around town and took in the sites. We hiked up to the castle that is on the hill. It was really pretty. Great view of the town. It had a little museum about pharmacies in it. It also had one of the worlds largest wine barrels. There was a TGI Fridays on post there. It was nice having American food in a restaurant. Free Refills!!!! The autobahn is quite the experience. We were driving 80-85 mph and cars were flying past us. They had to be doing at least 105-110. It was crazy. Our little car could not handle that kind of speed. I think we may need to upgrade to a car that is built for it. We found a outlet mall not to far from our town. It was really nice. Lots of shops that you would find in the US. Reilyn played at the playground there, German kids would come up and talk to her. She would look at them with a blank stare on her face.
We finally got our car from the US. It is nice to have. Our little stroller that we brought has gone to stroller heaven. It was used to carry Reilyn and tons of groceries from the store. So it was begening to fall apart. We talked in church this last Sunday. Kailey spoke in integrity and I spoke in self mastery. It went alright. You only have to prepare half a talk due to the fact that it has to be translated as you are giving it. So it wasn't to bad. Our desktop didn't survive the trip. So we have to claim that. Other then the computer and our dresser everything made it.
We hope and pray that everybody is doing well. We are doing pretty good. We miss everybody. For those that would like to come over and see us. Kailey said that she found tickets on priceline that were $200.00 around trip from Seattle and Frankfurt. Take care.
