With Uli gone to the Special Olympics in Bremen, I have been left in the excellent care of her wonderful family... they prepared a delicious dinner tonight, with sausage salad, sweet beets, an amazing cheese and onion dish, and of course, brot (bread). We shared the meal, a couple of special beers and a lot of conversation. This weekend is a busy one in the household, with Simon leaving at 3 a.m. tomorrow for London, David leaving at 8 a.m. for France, and me leaving in the afternoon for the Alps... Simon will be back before I leave next Saturday (aaaahhh!), but David won't, so I wanted to be sure I got some pictures with him before he left. I knew he had a grey ASU shirt, so I told him to put it on so we would match... then I told Simon, Miriam, and Walter to get their Arizona shirts on, too, and we had a photo session... what a hoot! First Walter got some shots, then he took them again with my camera. Then David was in charge of taking the photos of Walter and me, and it got a little bit silly after that... Walter with his eyes not on the camera, Walter with his eyes closed, Walter looking grumpy... we had to take quite a few to get it right. Then David and Simon started taking pictures of themselves, me sticking my tongue out, etc. and I have all of them saved on my computer... lol. (oh ya... I am on my tippy toes in all of the shots, because the family is sooo tall!) Then we settled down to watch the Mexico-France soccer match. Mexico won... sorry Tanguy! Then off to bed. Güt nacht!
Married to the love of my life, David, for almost 40 years, we have 2 wonderful kids. Daughter Alexis, and her handsome husband James and three incredible grandkids; Miller Jae 9, Rome 7, and Chance 3 1/2! My son, Aaron (the Marine veteran) is married to beautiful Erika. This is my fourth international trip (excluding MANY trips to Mexico) but first to New Zealand and I'm so excited to continue my adventures!
