Ok, so we've made it to Mönchengladbach and we are staying with my Tante Erna, she is the mother of Beate.
We spent the day visiting with all the family that came by. My Tante Christel and Onkel Friedhelm, cousins Tina and her daughter Anna. My cousin Beate's best friend Renate and her boyfriend Andreas. It was a flurry of family! In the evening we went for gelato and relaxed a bit.
Today we went to the house where my dad lived until he was 3 and the school his dad went to as a child.
This afternoon we are going to Venlo, Netherlands. This means we will have been to 4 countries on this trip!
We will tour there and shop for a bit and then return to M'gladbach. Tomorrow we will go to the Fußball game at the stadium in M'gladbach which holds 55K people...and this game sold out in 1 hour!
Friday through Sunday will be more shopping and family days.
There is still some adventure to come but I may not have access to Internet much further..so to my faithful readers..I miss you and will see some of you soon!! For now...tschüs!!
