Sunday, August 17, 2008

It's early Sunday morning here in Germany. There's a 6 hour difference in time than I am used to - so here I am at 4:00 AM watching the 2008 Summer Olympics as Michael Phelps goes for his 8th gold medal.

Yesterday, we visited a small town called Boeblingen (pronounced Berblingen) where we stopped and had a picnic lunch overlooking the downtown city of Stuttgart. A most beautiful sunny day around 70 deg.

There was a playground nearby which had a zip line. Too tempting to resist, so we all took our turns zipping down the line. What fun! I will post the pics shortly.

My first post! I never thought I would be moving to another country. On Wednesday, August 13, 2008, my family and I began our journey of moving from a small town just outside of Raleigh, North Carolina to over 4,000 miles away in Central Europe.

Over the course of the next two years, I plan to share my experiences with my family and friends through my blog. Hope you enjoy! Thanks for stopping by.
