Funemployment

My first full week off from work has been surprisingly busy. I have been catching up with friends, blogging, walking to the German grocery store for produce, jogging and biking, working on projects that have been on my list of things to do for about 2 years, and also making some time for school work :) Just wanted to share a few photos...

Melanie, Mandy and me before a tasty dinner at Bockshaut in Darmstadt

And today, I went down to Heidelberg with Melanie for Calvin's 2 month immunizations. Mom and baby were such troopers, we indulged in some American-style lemonade (not the same as German "lemonade," which is essentially Sprite), tuna/chicken sandwiches, and "Rock the Boat" dessert, a ridiculously delicious and sinful brownie, ice cream, banana, whipped cream, and caramel sundae, at Mandy's Diner. When you step into this eclectically decorated railway car, it feels like you are stepping into a 1950s "greasy spoon," complete with breakfast served all day (a very American thing) that is surprisingly very refreshing when living in a foreign country.



It's been a great week!
