1. Visit or spend some time with everyone I know before then...
AND
2. Get the packing I need to do out of the way. I've really procrastinated in buying things for Zambia, but I really think it's just about time to start.
Oh yeah... I almost forgot, I never finished the Europe story:
First of all, it was a real privilege to be able to visit so many places I feel really fortunate. I had no intentions to leave the U.S. before Zambia, and I had never been across the pond as the English say. The whole thing was a BIG blessing, and very fun!
Starting where the last post ended:
After we returned to Germany from our first weekend in Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and Italy, we just hanged around in my Mom's town in Germany for a couple of days (Monday and Tuesday) until the day before Thanksgiving when we drove over to Prague, Czech Republic and spent two days there. Prague is a very awesome place, but has very confusing streets. Anyway we then drove to Dresden, Germany for one night then up to Berlin which was also cool. Berlin is a nicer city than I envisioned it would be, the streets were easy to navigate and the main sites were easy to access not to mention there was plenty of parking (always a plus). We then returned to Triebendorf-Wiesau for one night and then set off for Lohnberg which is near Frankfurt am Main. We got to see a little of that area before we had to drive back to my mom's town and then back to Munich so we could all fly back to the States. It was indeed a great trip! Though, I will say that it is nice to be back in the U.S. so that I can enjoy it here at home before heading out for a couple of years. Even so, I am extremely excited for Zambia! I can't wait, but as always I expect leaving to be bitter-sweet but mostly sweet!

Well that does it for now... Guten Tag alles!
Peace.
