Sunday Funday...

We have been in Germany for exactly 1 week. Josef still doesn't feel like he is in Germany and Jason has asked on more then one occasion if we could live here forever. I'm just glad that they are adjusting so well!

German refrigerators are really small, similar to a dorm size frig. They buy most things fresh for the day. They are not big on processed or frozen foods. Most bigger villages have bakeries, butchers, and fresh produce markets. A small village is equivalent to a small neighborhood, maybe 30 houses or so. A larger village is equivalent to a larger neighborhood with maybe 60 houses and then a baker, butcher, and produce stand or market. Small cities are a large neighborhood with a gas station and a grocery store or two, and maybe a small business or two but everything is very close together and then outside  the village is farm land until you get to another village. Everything is closed on Sundays except on base. Most larger villages also have a small church. The churches are very old and most have the "onion" style tops/roofs. I'll have to get a picture of one, they are pretty cool.

It's a beautiful fall day in Hohenfels, Germany!
