Nice to be back

It's nice to be back home. All-in-all it wasn't a bad trip. The days were so packed, that they went by quickly. Starting with breakfast at 7:30 in the morning, to finally getting back at 11:00 at night after dinner - it was non-stop. Saturday was a little laid back. I went to Wurzburg to do a little shopping. It was a cloudy and rainy day, but not too bad. One of the most ridiculous things I saw was shopping at a store equivalent of a Target, and seeing the prices of toddler shoes. The lowest price was €48, about $60. How ridiculous is that? The irony of the whole thing was that people who can drop that kind of money on kids shoes don't usually shop in stores with shoes laid out in racks. Unless the Europeans are a complete breed apart. Well... take a look at this picture. One can't even kill oneself without being reminded of it...

I'm happy for the long weekend coming up. Time to kick back and maybe start a new season of 24.

My mom says its unbelievable how much more expensive everything is. They stock up when they come back to the states!

What season are you on? Johnny & I haven't finished the first season yet but we've enjoyed it so far.

Welcome Home! Did Priya still remember you? hehe. Just kidding. Im sure she was thrilled to see you back!

This is totally unrelated, but are you teaching her Hindi?

Yes, Addy is recovered. Other than the non-ketchup red substance on her food at lunch on Sunday we haven't noticed any difference in her behavior. The only abnormal quirk is that she has kept a finger or thumb in her mouth regularly but she was doing that before Sunday as well. As far as we can tell no loose teeth - - but I couldn't be positive. Its hard to tell!

I was curious about the Hindi answer....??
