last day

Today was my last day here & I am ready to come home!
Katrin & Roland left for South Africa at 4am but at 9am they were back! Their flight was cancelled! So they rescheduled to fly out later today at 5pm. We had a late breakfast & then I said goodbye again & Katrin took me to the train station so I could go into the center of the city to go shopping. I was nervous to go by myself, but I did ok, I didn´t get lost or anything! I really don´t undersatnd the language AT ALL! so talking to anyone was not happening. I ate lunch at Mc Donalds! only because I knew what it was & I even then had a hard time ordering. I had a few moments of needing a few xanax, but I made it through! I didn´t buy much, the dollar is so bad right now & I am so cheap I didn´t see much that I had to have! I will get some tshirts for the kids, the usual travel stuff. I even found a few bits of scrapbook paper but it was just cardstock at 7 euro for 5 sheets! Which is I believe around $10! Yikes!
So I decided to come back to the house -a 20 minute train ride & 10 min walk in the cold & dark. I thought about eating at the chinese restaurant on the way but the menu was in German & who knows what I would have eaten!!!
So I will have dinner with Minnie & Tessa (the cats) maybe take a bath & then goto bed.
The taxi will pick me up at 7:15 am, my flight is at 9am. I will get to the airport at home by 8pm Wednesday!
I sure miss my dear hubby & my kiddos & home a lot & I will be glad to be home! But I really am glad I was here to be a part of the celebration. Everyone was SO NICE & generous & welcomed me into their home like family. I will definetly come back again!
bye!
