First Days

First off, this is most of my family, Fidi is away for the weekend, I'm not sure where...but Henning is to thefar left (my hostfather) then Justus (my host brother) and Hilde (my host mother)
Yesterday was my first full day and it was FULL! Henning and I walked around some of downtown Hannover - for FOUR HOURS!! and I know have a HUGE blister on my heel...
Then later that night we went to Maschseetage - a festival thing around the lake (or sea...) they have, we saw a Police cover band...they couldn't sing wvery well.
The day before was my first day, after coming home from the airport we ate, then I unpacked and learned all the rules and then took a nap. Not to exciting, but there were some nice sunflowers in my room when I arrived (beautiful!)
Today, Henning and I went grocery shopping and in the afternoon we all went for a bike ride to the Großengarten at what used to be the Summer Palace for the Hannover kings. It was VERY pretty

That is all for today, it takes a long time to load the pictures so I will have to find a faster way to get them out...

Tschüss,

Mia

Aw Mia I am glad that things seem to be going well for you already! Sorry about the blister, I figured a downtown walker like you would be used to it by now! The pictures are very pretty & I'm jealous. Keep this updated and keep having fun! Miss you, Lori
