Whew! That was exhausting!

Well, the last two days have been action packed! Yesterday and today actually kin of run together. I know I did something yesterday morning, but as of right now....it doesn't exist. It'll come to me eventually. We will just start in the middle when I took Sophia to the playground! 

After about an hour here I tried to tell Sophia that we had to go home so we could pick up her brother from his sport. Well, I'm sure you know how good my German is (eh), to a German it is like having a baby what can't talk yet. So, after some help from a nearby parent who spoke excellent English we made it home just in time to turn around and head back to the playground! They said we could stay. (I got to make a good dent in Les Miserables so I'm not complaining.) 

On Friday nights we watch a movie. Yesterday it was Charlottes Web... In German. I caught a good bit of it though. OH!!!! My morning really didn't exist! I did not do much until it came time to take Sophia to her sport (horse riding)! Sabine and I drove out there and guess who got to drive by herself!!! Go on... Guess. That's right! Me!!! I think I was more scared than a, well, a little me seeing a spider above my bed in the middle of the night. But I made it with myself and the car in one piece there, and on the way back, this time with Sophia! 

Today we went all over!!! First we left the house early to go see about getting Lukas a nice nice new (to him "used") saxophone! No such luck though... After this we headed down to the Rhine!!!! It was beautiful!!!!! 

(And this is only half!!! There is a whole other side beyond the island!!!)

We had lunch on the Rhine at a place which is called a beer farm. No idea, don't ask. Lunch was great and we went for a short walk down the riverside. Where we saw a dog who could fetch like no other!! 

(This was my lunch! A very thin pizza-like pure awesome!)

We came home after lunch and then Sabine and I got ready to go to Frankfurt to an opera (type thing). It was good and different all at the same time. All in different languages, so I can't really say much, but I did enjoy myself. After three hours of Rigoletto, Sabine and I headed back to the house where I found Mongo (my new spider friend, whom I give plenty of space) fighting another (bigger) spider. It was a heroic battle on Mongos part because I believe that he now has lunch for tomorrow and possibly dinner. Das ist alles für jetzt! 

Bis bald!
