Our last day in Germany (April 4th) was a lot of fun. Liz and the girls took us to Trier, the oldest city in Germany. It was very interesting, and Liz did a great job as tour guide. We saw a cathedral and the Old Basillica, that is now the only Lutheran church in Trier. Of course we took pictures. We enjoyed a home-cooked meal at Liz's. Yummy Baked Ziti. We all had fun playing a few games, took a walk around the German town of Schrollbach, and watched the Tigers lose to the White Sox. This morning it was a little sad leaving the beautiful country of Germany and saying goodbye to family.
We arrived in Chicago after 9 hours on a 767. They showed us two movies and served two meals. Everything had mushrooms! We only had carry on baggage so that cut down on some time not that it really matters, because our flight to Grand Rapids isn't until 9 something pm. So the family is relaxing in the Chicago O'Hare USO area. They served us some food and now we are watching Lord of the Rings. There is still no information about our lost luggage..but we have been assured that we will get them back. We had a wonderful trip and had a lot of fun with Liz, Bob, Rachel and Abigail. We look forward to seeing them this summer.
Mary is glad that she can text her friends again, I called mom and left a message and Sarah finished her homework, and checked her email etc... She has her first softball game this Tuesday! She also has an interview for a scholarship. She will be going to Boston with her Show Choir at the end of this month. Matt is glad to be home too. He is anxious to see his friends, esp. in Sunday School tomorrow. Church will come early and then I will have to wash what clothes we had in our carry ons on the way home.
Wel, that is all for now. Gute Nacht!
