Let me see...going back 2 weeks to get you all up to date. We arrived here late Saturday afternoon and 'slept' for a few hours, up for a few hours and slept again for a few more until a uncharacteristicly late time for the Millers. I took the girls for an 'adventurous' walk and later found out that Sundays are 'quiet' days and we're to keep quiet...really? On such a beautiful day, crazy. On our adventure we found a nearby park; one that would never be deemed safe in the states, which my kids have called "Kidsboro". It is their favorite park, and really basic, if they'd just let me take them to the few up the street...they'd think this one was tiny in comparrison. But, hey, they are content so no complaints here.
For the next week, Trent improssessed while the girls and I explored around here and walked to one of the bases to explore what it had to offer. We viewed a few houses. Ironically, it was the first house that really caught our eye and felt that God brought it to us for many reasons, mainly that the landlord is a Christian, has 6 six kids (which is VERY unheard of in Germany) two of whom are missionaries, has a very open floor plan, has fruit and berry trees and 2 winter gardens (a personal prayer request of mine for my treadmill and quiet time and to grow some herbs and small veggies and plants. We're in negotation right now and should hear back, hopefully, tomorrow!!! We'll rent the two lower levels as the top level is rented to a young newlywedcouple (Christian artists)!! It is extremely common in Germany to have a few families rent 'apartments' of homes. We won't have to share anything other than an entrance and walkway!
Our trips to the castles will have to wait for another post along with our new high carb, low green, full of fat diet and our penthouse suite in our hotel!
