I'm guessing I won't be fluent in German by then -- but I am getting pretty good at introducing myself, asking for a cup of coffee, excusing myself and asking for help finding my dog. (Just kidding, Glen.)
Meanwhile, a cool, new development. My nephew Henry will be visiting for a day or two while I'm there!
Henry's father is Jeanne's brother, Michael. Michael and his wife Ute live in Hamburg, one of half a dozen places in Europe and the US where Henry grew up. Henry is now a student at George Washington University in Washington, DC, and, during his summer break, he'll be in southern Germany visiting Ute's family.
Henry speaks fluent German and English and he's in his second or third year of college-level Italian, so it will be fun to explore the neighborhood with him and maybe shop and cook together.
This is really turning into quite an adventure!
