Just your average day...

I can't seem to get ahead on any of the house work.  Because German's don't believe in central air systems, the dust builds up over night.  I could sweep three times a day and it would still be dusty.  Anyway, Jeremy came home early from work today, so we were able to run some errands on base (commissary, exchange, dry cleaners, etc.).  But, tonight we went to dinner in Landstuhl (with our favorite Karl) and had an amazing traditional German meal.  Yummo!  We ate at Le Marecage, which was a beautiful building and the wait staff was great!  I ate, what the waiter described as, a German omelette.  It was sliced potatoes, shrimp, and eggs.  After cooking it kind of forms an omelette shape, but the majority of the food is potatoes.  The potatoes (Kartoffel) are grown small here, not like the ginormous ones in the states.  Man, it was so good!  Anyway, I recommend that restaurant.  Oh, but, they do allow children, but no highchairs and cash only.  This restaurant also allows dogs, though it's such a nice, high-class place I wouldn't have thought so.  Germans love dogs. 


Tomorrow we're going back to Heidelberg.  Our favorite Karl is driving, so what do we care to go again if it's not our gas we're spending.  I'm excited though.  I love this country, and the more we get to travel it, the more familiar we'll get the the roadways, parking, and driving habits.


There are thousands of things I could talk about when it comes to Germany, but I've got four years to write about all the little things that are different from the states.  Just wait until I start talking about the trash in this country.  They are efficient people, but when it comes to trash, I hate them.  All righty then.  Going to bed now.  Big day tomorrow.  


Gute Nacht!
