Back Online Again...

Hi all, we're finally back online again at home. YEAH! But we pay by how much we use so it's not flatrate usage like in USA or Germany. But we'll get used to it again. So DON'T send those huge files through email!! ;-)

We'll upload some pictures of the house, the kids' school, the church, the area, etc. when we get a little bit of a breather. We had a good 1st Sun and Wed and are really looking forward to getting to know the fellowship better. So thanks again for all your prayers and support - we truly can't do it without you all behind us. And keep praying for that car / minivan that God is preparing for us even now! ;-)

Speaking of cars - we are all getting used to cars being on the LEFT side of the road. We have to teach the kids (and ourselves!) all over again how to cross streets - they keep looking the wrong way. I was told that a tourist was killed last year when he/she walked in front of a car! And we have to remember that here cars have the right of way (or is that LEFT of way - hehe), not pedestrians (at least that was what I was told). That means cars don't stop for you - I have gotten some dirty looks already for forgetting this! Only in crosswalks do pedestrians have right of way. Even then, there are signs painted on the ground at crosswalks that say 'STOP LOOK LIVE' - very good advice!

Any ways, the next adventure will be DRIVING on the left side of the street! Oh, boy, I can foresee many interesting stories already!
