Greetings from Tuebingen!

Hi Everyone,

Its been an exhausting week, which translates into me not updating. Which also means I'm racking my brain, trying to figure out what I've been up to this week.

Tuesday--We took the kids to Goslar again so that Thies could get a hair cut. The kids and I went on the Bimmelbahn. It's a little train that gives you a tour of the city. Was cool and I learned a lot more about Goslar.

Wednesday--This was the rainiest of all rainy days, so we stayed inside most of the day. I entertained Jan for a long while. He is 2 and adorable. We all ended up going to the supermarket, which also has a Mediamarkt, a toy section, and a book section on the second floor. Thies and Jan and I went to look at toys. Thies is 5 and doesn't wander off....Jan can't sit still. So basically I was chasing Jan everwhere and Thies would be like...Molly, don't leave me!! Not that I was trying to. It was just hard to keep Jan in check...

Thursday--I took the train to Tuebingen. Was 6 hours long, but I felt like a princess since I was in first class (it was cheaper than 2nd class, don't ask me why.) So I was sitting, sipping tea and reading a book the whole way. Was amazing... haha.

Angi met me at the train station in Tuebingen. It was so awesome to see her. It's been 4 years!! Anyway, after we put my things in her room we walked around the city a bit. She bought me ice cream--I had chocolate, she had straciatella--and then we just walked around town. I bought a few things at the bookstore--suprise, suprise...

Later on in the evening we got to go on a punt (I'm told this is the English word, however it sounds wrong to me), actually I would call it a gandalla, like those boats they have in Italy. Angi reserved one for us, which was such a cool idea. One of her guy friends steered the boat--which is a lot of work...and we had a mini grill on board. So we grilled out, had salad, bread, and champagne...All while on this boat sailing down the Neckar. It was honestly one of the coolest things I've done in Germany!!

I am excited for the rest of this weekend. If I ever want to do anything, I better go get ready.

More later.

Tschuess, Molly
