ich bin hier in Deutschland

Hi everyone, just a quick note to let everyone know I got here ok. I haven’t slept since before I wrote my last post, which was about 26 hours ago. It’s about 6:30 PM here now, and I’m getting ready to eat dinner and then go to bed. It’s been hard trying to stay awake today, but I was determined not to let myself sleep. This resulted in me nearly falling over a couple times. I felt like the earth was undulating beneath me. Apparently my stance showed it…John said I was swaying sometimes.

Tomorrow I will probably explore stuff some more. Today was kind of consumed by just trying not to sleep.

Other stuff: I got in to Frankfurt on time and at the very end of my 8.5 hour flight, I made a new friend. Figures that I’d be on a flight that long and not talk to anyone until I was deplaning.

The guy at customs looked like he absolutely hated his job. Seriously did not smile once…or even attempt to talk to me. Whatevvvvver.

John and I took the train from the airport on into Schwetzingen. I’m amazed by two contrasting thoughts: 1) German looks like someone just messed up typing a bunch of letters and 2) I actually understand some of this mess. (but just a little)

No, I haven’t eaten German food yet. I was too tired, so I ate at Taco Bell. Yeah, whatever. I have 2.5 months to eat nasty sauerkraut so get over it.

Ok…pizza time. Byeeeeeeeeeee.
