Murphy's Law

Well, in the category of what can go wrong will go wrong the last 24 hours have been a winning combination. We have not been able to do anything that we need to in order to get ready to leave and in addition to that my brother who was being wonderful by helping us replace a broken faucet on our tub accidently flooded our bathroom which dripped down into our kitchen ceiling and now we have eighty more things to do. Stress is not something I am used to in combination with travel. Right now I just wish I were back in Germany or Spain with good people having fun. On the plus side, we just sold our second car, so now we are officially carless. That is a very strange feeling for an American, although I guess I must see myself as a European for the next year. I am excited by the prosepct of walking to work next year, I just do not know how we will get around when I return next summer. Anyway the fun continues. I know that alot of you have seen the blog, but I would love if people would leave some comments, that is part of the joy of doing something like this, plus I know that alot of my old friends probably cannot wait to bust me out. Actually, probably true of my new friends too. I will add some more pictures today, be sure to keep going down on the blog if I add new ones. Paul Kelly said he appreciated all the pictures of Dave, since it dressed up the site a little.

Cheers
