Good morning from Germany!

I don't know how many of you will be pleased to noticed I'm only posting a few pictures this time around. The computer situation is such that it takes a while to do anything. But, I do have a few.

In any case, we're having a wonderful time! We have been staying with families and enjoying it. The little kids are adorable, but of course none speak enough English for a conversation. We are learning GERMAN. lol

The frustration for me is not knowing German. It's like everyone is speaking code and laughing at an inside jokes. Of course, there are lot and lots of people who speak English which has been a huge blessing. : D Bonnie is picking up grammar, vocabulary and phrases like crazy...which is good. My brain isn't as fast as hers.....I think it might take me a couple years to learn at my turtle pace. : )

Hello everyone!! I pretty much have been neglecting this poor blog. Funny, once I get it all fixed up the way I like it, -poof- no more blogging. : P Anyway, I hope to revive it for my trip to Germany! Bonnie and I have an opportunity to visit Germany this month and next, for 16 days. I’m really excited. : )

Another bit of exciting news is my new camera! I’m thrilled to have a DSLR. For anyone who keeps up with cameras, it’s a Nikon d90. It’s going to wonderful to take it to Germany. I blogged a few pictures at the family blog. Here’s one of me and the camera. Should I name it?

Anyway, leave a comment or two to encourage me to post again before I leave on Tuesday for the east over the ocean. :) My computer is in the shop, which doesn’t help with getting posts started and finished, but I can try. :)
