We enjoyed shopping....well, I enjoyed shopping....ha! We enjoyed eating! Victor had wiener schnitzle, which is a thin piece of pork that is fried and served with small pieces of pasta that are fried, every single meal! He lived in Germany as a child and that is his favorite German meal so he couldn't get enough! I enjoyed German food too! I do love the German pastries the best! I brought plenty home on my ass!
The thing I loved about Germany the most was how clean and orderly everything is. There is a sense of such peace and quiet and order. Of course, the amazing old buildings and architecture are mind blowing! The German people take such pride in their country and keep it spotless. They maintain those old buildings very lovingly. Even though the average speed is 85, the driving there is calm....in the far right lanes. The far right lane is reserved for those going over 85. I watched in amazement as cars zipped past us going over 100 miles per hour! But, there was nothing frantic about it. There was very much order and it felt normal.
The girls had a fantastic time! They were perfect on the 10 hour flight to Germany. They don't complain about traveling or sleeping in strange beds or sight seeing. They are all for it! They crawled all over Victor and had a wonderful time with him. It was a love fest for sure!
I had a birthday while there and Victor and the girls made me a "German Chocolate Cake"! How fitting! That Victor is so clever! It was the best way I can imagine to spend my birthday!
We enjoyed a week of fun and family time in Ramstein! We then rented a car and drove 5 hours to the big city of Munich, which is really called Munchen!! What!?? Then why do we call it Munich? Munich was very different in an even more wonderful way! The next post will be all about Munchen!
The Germans say "chus", pronounced like juice with a ch instead of a j, which means goodbye, see ya later. So chus until the next blog!
