We all needed a bit of cheering up. We went to the mall and bought a universal DVD player that would play our American DVDs (whenever we receive them) plus any new DVDs we may buy here. I couldn't resist buying Rebecca a Dora DVD that has the original English track so that she could watch something familiar. We threw in lunch at McDonald's.
Micaela went into Frankfurt with friends to see the movie Hairspray (there are some theaters that show American movies in English with German subtitles, otherwise they're dubbed into German).
David chatted a bit with a woman we see everyday walking her dogs. When she found out we were American, she told David that her father had been a soldier in the war and afterwards a prisoner of war. "The Americans treated him very well," she said. We've made another friend.
