Hi everybody,
The past two days have been a whirlwind. After a day of traveling I was completely exhausted but relieved to be with my new family. I was introduced to my new cat, Leo, two birds, three chickens, a herd of bunnies, and a turtle. Everything is so different here. The roads and cars are smaller, the houses are smaller but very cozy. The people seem very friendly. After leaving the airport we were all split up into groups of twos to be sent to our houses. It was a shock to be on my own after being with all the Americans, but I have a very nice mom and sister who are here for me. I can't wait to see how everybody else is doing at our first OLC training meeting on Monday.
My fist full day has been really laid back. In the morning a friend came over for a birthday breakfast. After that we drove to the city to get some food. I never knew they had Aldi food store in Germany. Even though it is the same store, all of the products are German. Tonight we will stay in for a relaxing night to watch Tangled. I can't wait to watch one of my favorite Disney movies in German.
Thanks for reading!
Sandra
Hi Aleksandra - Sounds like you are having a very nice family day with your new mom and sister - a good change after the long hours of traveling. Please say hello to them for me. I'm working on converting to Germany time whenever I think of you (and that's a lot!) so it should soon come quickly. Enjoy the movie in your "cozy" house, I imagine your sister will be excited to watch that with you. Love you, Nana
