Who knew service here was this bad??

On Sunday the Tassinger family and I went to a triathalon being held on the Kuhsee. It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed watching the participants swim, bike, and run. Christines mom took part, which I think is commendable, considering Im like 40 years younger than her and I couldnt handle that much exercise. But I suppose she does sports all of the time.

Anyway later that evening we went out to a beer garden. Everyone except Christine...the boys had strep throat last week and gave it to her. We met up with family friends at the beer garden. It took us 2 whole hours to get our food. How long can it take to make spaghetti for the kids?? I mean, come on. We waited another half hour to pay before Ingo decided he couldnt take it anymore. He left a napkin with the bartendar that had his name and phone number on it and what we ordered. He said if they wanted the money, theyd have to call him. Thank goodness we have better service in America!!

On Monday I got up late, had a meat and cheese baguette with Christine, and then went to a little performance at Nicos preschool. They sang songs and it was very cute. Last night we had a nice dinner outside, and I enjoyed some yummy white wine.

Today I got up around 10, had spaghetti with Christine and Simon around noon, and then later we took Simon and Nico to a thing at a local gym. They play music in the background as the kids do various basic gymnastic activities. After that we went to a travel circus type thing that had a lot of moon walks and things like that for kids to do. There was also a 4 wheeler (motorcycle) for the kids to ride. Was very strange, as the kids running everything were around 10 years old. There were no adults in site. Was very shady. In America the kids would have to sign waiver forms before driving a 4 wheeler...am I right?? At least after that we got to go out for ice cream...I had mint chocolate chip and chocolate...yum!!

Tomorrow Christine will take me to Munich where we will have coffee and cake with Susanne. After that we re going to a soccer game...yay! But then Ill have to say goodbye to the Tassinger family, since Im staying with the Deuke family for my last 2 nights in Bavaria. I hate goodbyes!! Ugh!! But I do know that I will see these people again next year, and that is comforting. Years go by pretty fast.

Time to spend a bit of time with my host parents on my last night here.

Bye, Molly
