O-ma which is my host familys grandma has helped me with alot of my german. She really makes me feel welcomed here, not that the family does´nt but she always talks to me, even though i do not understand her, and she cannot understand me.
I start school next monday well on the 4th, i go to a language school and I hope that I will get better at my german. O-ma always tells me her english ist nicht good, and than i can understand that she says she cannot wait for me to go to language school so I can speak german. O-ma also cooks everything, I only get one warm meal a day... no its not like jail, actually in germany you only have one cooked meal a day the other two meals are brochen, or bread.
my host sisters also help me along as well, jona is always playing games with me. She does not speak any german either but she talks to me, and is always asking me to play monopoly. caren speaks english and is always plracticing with me, and caro takes me everywhere. I go down the street shops and they all look like cottages. They are small shops but they are so tiddy, and neat. On just about every corner there is a bakery that sells bread. The ice cream shops are wonderful, all the ice creams and sculpted into works of art, to look like cakes, or places, or even animals. I truly love all the art here, and even though I am not one for walking, or riding a bike, i find myself walking and riding a bike every where. It does not bother me though because the weather here is always just right.
Well O-ma has cooked some apple sauce pancakes, I know it does not sound very good but its my warm meal for the day.

Applesauce pancakes??? Sounds interesting. Were they good? I hope you are taking tons of pictures for us! Hugs, Sheri
I can't wait to visit so I can go to the bakery's or is it bakeries?
Oooh, yes, I remember the bakeries (take note Smost)...we used to go there with 10 pfenings and buy candy. I suppose now everything is converted over to the Euro.
We had the most fun walking to the bakery, You were in a stroller! or in a carrier on my back. Holly, Chad, Rachel and Sarah all loved going too. They went almost every day on the way to the bus stop for school and back too!
What is fish bacon?
I laughed at the comment about Sarah and your shower. Your day sounds fun, especially with your gift of writing.
I am glad the Rotary club there was able to put you in langage school, I wish we would do that here too.
Leticia is getting ready to leave back to Brazil in a week. I think you will be as sad as she is when it is time to go. Love and miss you lots.
fish bacon is strips of thin fish meat mixed with other meat and than its pressed into a thin sheet than you put it on your Brochen. So in a way its like sushi except there is just fish. Its kinds gross looking if you ask me
