Poland
Hi again. Well I went to Poland, and forgot my camera. We left Friday at Midnight, drove 5 hours and started shopping at 0530. We went to 9 polish pottery factories, and I had the best potatoe pancakes and Polish Golosh I've ever had. It didn't start out so well, however. I got car sick when we left, and did have the upchuck incident, but had a bag. I was woosy all day, but after the lunch meal, better. Got some things that I didn't get the first time I was here. Loved the shopping, but was very tired when we returned at 2000 Saturday. Spent Sunday recovering.
Found a house, but cannot move in until the end of Sept. So, I extended in the hotel, and moved to a bigger nicer room. Sorry no pics, but next trip I will post some. Going to Budapest over Labor Day. Leave Thursday evening, drive through and return on Monday. Cannot wait! More later.

Back in Germany
Hi folks, well I made it back to Germany!! I'm so happy here, and I love it!! My job is great, the people I work with are great and the weather, well it's one place where the forcast can say, partly sunny. It has been raining on and off since I got here, with some sunshine every other day or so. I'm out in the country this time, so the weather will be a little different.
I'm looking for a house, and it is hard going. My hotel room is very small, but adequate. It is only 2 small blocks from my office. Which is good, because I'm walking everywhere until I purchase a car. Any suggestions?
Today I'm going to a Volksfest in Vilseck, which is where I'm station. The German/American folks get together and have a festival with music, food, beer tents, rides for kids, etc. They are going to have Country Music from 5:00-6:30 today, so a friend of mine and I are going to stay. I cannot wait to have some German sausage, etc. today. Last night I went to have dinner at a great German restaurant, and the spazle was awesome!!! So was the rest of the meal. I had my first Heffe since I got here, and fell in love again.
Now that I'm here again, I'll be putting up more posts. I'll take pics tonight, as I'm sure it will be a fun time. I'm going to Poland Aug 20, and to Budapest Sept 1-4. I cannot wait for those trips. Hope you all are doing well, more later,
Leslie
