As we sit in bed setting our favorite 0500 alarm we realize we have officially been in Germany for two weeks. It is pretty wild to think about but we are more than thankful for the next 15 to come!! Our last two weeks have flown by with grocery shopping, trips and minor illness between the two of us (Alex is still snoring terribly in her sleep...cute I know). Believe it or not, our morning yoga is actually going well and we are more than awake when we get to school at 7 to prepare for the day. We even go in on weekends to work with our teachers on lessons...who knew we'd get old so quickly?!
Yesterday we got to explore Kaiserslautern (or k-town) which is similar to Indianapolis (if we're talking in terms of size). We are in a suburb of K-town and it's just a quick train ride over. We were a little nervous because apparently some guys got in a fight the night before and one got killed by being pushed into the train tracks...so that's morbid...but the train was still running the next day so we grabbed our tickets and hopped right on! The Greek restaurant we ate at was a lot fancier than we anticipated so our sweatshirts were a littttle uncomfortable but you know YOLO as Alex says (although a lot less since Germany thank goodness). We ended up ordering lamb knuckle and stuffed mushrooms. Talk about seriously stuffed! Now that we kind of know our way around we will definitely be going back.

This next week is going to be a whirlwind for us because it's our first full week at the school. We are both participating in deployment buddies, which is an awesome program for kids who's parents are currently deployed. There is also a chili cook off coming up so you KNOW we will be at that for sure. After a full week we have our first long weekend which we will be spending in London!! Woop! There will definitely be lots of details and pictures of that to come. As for now, it's way past our bedtime.
