Yesterday I made the long journey from Bloomfield Township, MI, USA, to Hahnenklee, Niedersachsen, Germany. I headed over with a German family that lives near me. I'm helping watch the kids while we're here. Anyway, the flight wasn't too bad even though Frauke and I had 3 kids to worry about.... But the 8 hour flight was incredibly tedious, and might I add the fact that I didn't sleep at all and the chicken they served was rather disgusting? But I digress...
We did eventually arrive at the airport in Frankfurt am Main, where one of her friends came to pick us up. But the fun doesn't end there...there was a 4 hour drive to Niedersachsen from there! It was worth it though. I couldn't sleep at all because I was just enjoying the gorgeous view.
Once we made it here I took a 4 hour nap. When I woke up I felt a bit better but still chose to stay in my sleeping attire. So I made a really good impression on the kids grandparents when I first met them today---in my pajamas. Well at least I had a bra on I guess. That's something.
I am really and truly exhausted, but I guess you can't get somewhere this beautiful without having to pay your dues just a bit :) I'm expecting tomorrow to be a pretty amazing day.
Over and out, Molly :)
