Well yesterday I decided to take the girls to the old town section to look at the shops. We have to see it in sections because the girls will go crazy if we stay too long. We were looking for the gummi bear store and I heard someone speaking English to their child. I stopped her and asked if she knew where the shop was and we started talking. It suddenly started raining so we had to take our conversation under some shelter. We decided to meet the next day to go to the zoo.
We met today and took the kids to the zoo. She has a little boy(2yrs.). The zoo experience was a lot better today than last time. We saw more of the animals this time and I had company. We talked about all kinds of stuff and found we had much in common. We plan to do something tomorrow as well. It's a shame we didn't meet early but better late than never.
It is funny how much it means to you to meet someone from your home when you are travelling. You just feel a level of common understanding.
We went to dinner by the Alt bruke and took some pictures. Nothing too exciting. We are now realizing our trip is coming to an end. It has passed so quickly. Oh, well.
From my perspective, it is really winding down quickly. Only two more days of work, then a week of travelling around and then back to our normal life. We have started to make some plans for our week off. We will be meeting up with a school friend of mine (Jon) who lives in Holland and will be visiting us in Munich. We have also booked a couple of castle tours for Monday. I am looking forward to fulltime travelling and also some warmer weather that is forecast.
