First Week of School

We made it through the first week. I even figured out how to make that left turn at the intersection that was giving me such trouble.

David and I realized that we need to get the kids signed up for sports activities and soon! SLO activities will fill in the gaps.

All in all, the kids have had a good week and they have all made friends. One of Micaela's friends is from Liederbach and even came knocking on our door one evening to see where we live. David and I gave each other a high-five over that later.

We have found the Armed Forces Network radio station "The Eagle" and it has become my main source of information. All day long, we get news updates, weather and traffic -- in English! The music they play is mostly Top 40, plus music from the 80s and 90s. I have lost track of current music in my old age and would have never thought I would find myself saying things like, "I really like that Justin Timberlake song," and "Let's download that Shakira song."
