Well....we made it. I'm officially in Garmisch...mostly unpacked....and will be living here for the next 13 months! Crazy! Still doesn't feel real. Feels like a big college dorm room without the awkward get to know you games that the RA's always make you play (thanks Tyler for the rootbeer chugging competition that we had while chanting eachothers names as they drank. What a great way to encourage new freshman to a Christian College with drinking games.) Haha. It was actually fun I guess.
Anyways. Emily and I started our day out yesterday by leaving my mom's house at 3:30 to catch our 6:00am departure out of Portland. We then went to Denver, then to DC, then finally over to Munich at 7:00am Germany time. Which is just fantastic because it means that we have to stay up another day to get on this schedule. Once off the plane we went through customs and then met up with the Edelweiss guys that were at the airport to greet us...Rob and Jay. We also met a few others who are starting this same adventure too. We all got along great and eventually made our way onto our buss to head to Garmisch, where we got checked into our dorms and got a tour.
So for now...not much to report. So far so good. I'll try to take some pictures in the next couple of days to show you our dorm, where we will be working, etc. For everyone who reads this. Take care and God Bless. Later

Guten morgen!
ReplyDeleteYeah you made it!
Yeah! I'm glad you are safe and sound and getting settled. I have the alternate time setting on my watch matched to Germany, so I can keep tabs on what's going on over there. :) Sleep well your first night in your new home and we miss you!
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it! Hopefully the adjustment to their time zone won't be too difficult
ReplyDeleteHave a great adventure. And don't get lost like your Aunts Trisha and Cathy and Uncle Gerry did while hiking in Garmish. (ended up in Partenkirschen)
