Warum du hast gewartet!

Well, I've been asked to post again, and now I finally have time! Yay! Pretty much the most of these first few weeks I've spent getting to know Heide, how to get from place to place on my own, and just getting to know and understand the daily routine. I'm finally getting the hang of it. It's not so hard. And I'm really getting to know the family and love them. They are really wonderful. Now I'm hoping to get into my own little routine more. I am looking forward to institute. I think that will be a great opportunity. So there are a lot of things yet to come. But here are some more pictures, as promised, and I'll explain.
We finally found Noah's Ark!All day they collected sea shells because they didn't want me to not have any. So they came home with tons of sea shells for me! It was sweet!

Ok, so all of these are of the other day when we went to the East Sea. So now I've been to the North and East Seas. There were people flying kites everywhere!


They kept playing like they were blind and they would lead each other. It's not very often they get along so I had to take advantage of the moment.

This is what it looks like after months of being part of the sea. In the summer. All of the land that is in these pictures is under water. Hence the really tall stilts. This is really deep into the water bed then.

So this is for you mom. This is basically a tour of our house with photos. So I start with the view from my window looking out. The other window is straight into the neighbors window so I never open the blinds and it's kind of creepy. This one however has a really nice view.

The hallway as you exit my room. Oh yeah, this is the contraption I use to dry my clothes. Actually, just the clothes I don't want to put in the dryer. Don't worry. We have a dryer.

This is my closet down the hall. Not much. But I don't need much.

This room will eventually be a spa. That's right. A SPA. Right now, it's a really cold storage room.

First the stairs, and then the view from the stairs. The door inside the archway is my bathroom. The other door is the front door. Only the post man uses that door.
This is the view from the landing off of the stairs. To the left, the kitchen. Straight ahead, the living room. To the right, the family living quarters.
The kitchen. Yes, that is as big as a European fridge gets. No joke.
I hope you know what that is. That's right, you guessed it. That's the family stash of carbonated water. One thing I will never understand Europeans for and why I have a bunch of 2 Liters of real water hidden in my bedroom....
The door we use to get into the house and where I do my laundry.

The living room.

Part of the living room. This is the dining room. Only used when guests come. Which only happens on Sundays. And not very often. Really, we never use it. But I still have to clean it!

This way to the family living quarters but I won't disturb them...

This is the car I drive. A Toyota Corolla. It works technically. It's having some troubles so we might get a new one in the summer....what will it be???? Probably not as nice as Dirks pimped out Audi....

Well, I hope you all enjoyed your tour. Especially since it took me for freakin ever. I'm tired so I'm off to bed. Gute nacht!
