Difference
Everday I notice something different about the way of life here. In germany they are very GREEN, not just their plants but the way they recycle, or clean up, or even when you go into the grocery store and see the containers you purchase things in. Of course everyone knows about how the outlets are different, but the electronics that go into those outlets are completly different too. I have said again and again that the meals are different, but its amazing because so are the portions. My family cooked pizza and everyone had a full pizza on their plates. I stil have not figured out how everyone is so skinny here either, because compared to me they eat alot more. I think it may be the fact that they walk, or ride bikes everywhere. Which is not a bad idea, because not only does it save them money, but its also makes the air smell that much better because there is not as much polution. This morning I had eggs for breakfast, and it was the first time I have seen eggs coocked in a machine, or eating in a little cup with half of the shell on. They also dress different but not in the way most people think, they dress really how they want to. I do not know if there is a style here but from what I´ve seen I think anyone can wear anything and its okay. Well Ill write more differences later tschüss

It's fun to hear about the differences. How is language school going? It sounds like you're having a ton of fun & learning new things. Your life sounds very exciting!
A lot of our food is processed. I have heard: eat your food as close to the way God made it as possiable. Maybe that is their secret! Wish we had bike and walk paths here. I miss you, you sound so happy! We need to green up in the U.S.
I wish we took the GREEN life more seriously here in the United States. It's sad the way we create so much waste here. I just saw a walk/bike path by the river here near our recreational center and am thinking about taking the boys for a nature walk! Sounds like you are enjoying everything over there!! We are starting homeschooling tomorrow, the boys are very, very excited!! ;-) Love and Miss You!! - Sheri
