A Morning in Weinheim...

While dh was working, the girls and I did a little sight-seeing in Weinheim today. After the craziness of moving in and then my nephew's broken-foot visit, we enjoyed a few hours of wandering, shopping and pretzel-bread eating.

Weinheim is the lovely little town where dh works, about 45 mins. to an hour from our home in Frankfurt. We went to Weinheim this morning and wandered about while dh worked 1/2 a day. He met us at lunch, we did a little car shopping and then headed back to Frankfurt for the Open House at the school.

While we were strolling the streets of Weinheim, we found a fun store that carried so many types of items, including board games. We bought a German version of a much beloved family favorite (of everyone but me!) - RISK. The girls were so excited, they broke out the new game and played it w/dh tonight. Fortunately, I didn't have to play. :)

All-in-all, it was a good day. In fact, with all the shopping we've done this week, the girls have been having a wonderful time. We're hoping to catch a matinee at the English-language movie theatre in town tomorrow afternoon and then it's off to Strasbourg, France for our first weekend getaway. School starts Monday, so then things will get down to normal. Or, at least, our new normal.
