Day 4 Favorite Book
The one book that I can read over and over is:
Night by Elie Weisel
Though this book is extremely sad, it gives a first person perspective to the Holocaust from the point of view of a young boy. He tells of the trial and tribulations of losing his family and living in a concentration camp all the way until he was freed.

Day 3 Favorite TV Show
This one is a toss up. I am going to have to say it is either:
True Blood, though I dont have HBO
Or Army Wives.

Day 2 Favorite Movie
This is a hard one. If I had to choose just ONE movie it would have to be. . .
THE BREAKFAST CLUB
I love a lot of movies from the 80's, but this one is awesome!
Recently I saw Letters from Juliet and it was a great movie as well. I might have to add it to my list of favorites.

We made it
We arrived safely in Germany on Tuesday after a very long flight. Since then we have been running around like crazy trying to get things taken care of so we can start to get settled.
Here are the things I have learned about Germany thus far:
1) The roads are EXTREMELY confusing
2) German people are fairly nice even if they have no idea what you are saying
3) TAXIS ARE EXPENSIVE!!!!
4) Iphones are cheap if you sign up for a contract
5) The BX is a teenager hangout all the time, not just on weekends
6) Milk tastes different, and the cows smell different
7) It stays light here until about 10:30 PM which totally messes with your mind!
8) AFN TV sucks
9) People are super crazy drivers, luckily my jeep will be twice the size of their cars so I can just run them over.
10) While looking for houses off base, take it even if you kinda like it because there are 15 other people that would take it while you "think about it"
Hopefully I will get a chance to take some pictures soon now that things are starting to settle down a bit.

Almost time. . .
Tuesday is the day that we set out on our adventure. It already seems like it is going to be hectic; I can only imagine how hectic it will actually be.
On a more positive note, we did our final inspection on our house and passed after having to make a copy of the patio key since my lovely husband threw it away months ago. Who finds a key and decides, "hmmm I don't know what this goes to so I'll throw it away"- yep my husband. But ooh well it only cost $1.87. So now we are homeless, but staying with some friends until the big day.
Soon we will be seeing this:
And hopefully sooner rather than later we will feel at home again.
