Whew!!! Busy Day!!

... take me so we can move the mattress in. I am probably going to have to move the rest of my stuff with the bus tomorrow, but it should be ok. I only have class until 1pm, so I will have the rest of the afternoon free. Tomorrow I need to figure out internet for the new place, move in, and hang up my proofreading flyers.

When I left this morning, I knew that I had tons of stuff to do, and I also just knew that none of it would work ...

First Class Taught Alone = Success

... so it won't cost so much to get there. I am focusing on having enough money for food, electricity, rent, and a mattress, and Oktoberfest isn't really high up on the list of priorities right now. I will be so excited and relieved when I get everything settled and can really focus on integrating myself and learning German!!

Also I am concerned with the safety at the Oktoberfest.. with hundreds of thousands of people grouped in a ...

Lean Green gives up the ghost

... They told us we were at the highest point in Belgium, which was somewhere in the Nature Park.

We decided to call it a day for the roadbook, and make a detour to just get into Luxembourg for fuel, and to make sure we 'did' all the countries.

Looking back that detour cost us some time, but did mean we visited Luxembourg, even if it was too dark to see it.

Picked up the Lean Greens

Once in Elsloo, we stopped to find postcards (having completely missed the observations again), only to find that the only card shop was closed that afternoon.

Up the road a bit, and Kieran was dropping a card into the door of a Landy enthusiast they had met on the recce. The guy turned up at that moment, and so we were invited in for a refreshing cold drink. The Landyprikkers overtook us at that point, and went on their way. We then ...

Teacher Outing and Apartment Search Completion

... hope its free to get in! haha

Just fixed a pizza for dinner and watched Nil make a "birthday cake" for her friend. It was nothing like we would consider a birthday cake; it had mandaran oranges and crust and was all creamy. It looked delicious, nonetheless. I hope they bring a piece back for me!

Well gonna get ready for the church outing. Hope everything is going well for everyone back in the states!

First Day of School ETC

... grade English class, and I must say, they have been quite impressive. It is definitely beneficial for the students to start learning a language so young. In the 12th grade class we had a discussion about the American Dream. The students seemed very interested in what I had to say and learning what its really like instead of learning from reading about America or seeing it on TV. At the end I asked if any students had any ...

Trundling down towards Aachen and Koln

We 'trundled down past Maastricht towards Germany. The deviations were big ones but we still were able to make good time! The scenery was worth the deviations though. We past by some wonderful little towns and river gorges. Very nice bit of countryside. Will have to return there sometime, God willing!

... train. Finally we decided to get a hotel and found on by the bus stop called central hotel. the room was pretty exspensive and it was a time warp back to the 1940's. The old guy at the front desk kept saying "the lift, the lift" and we kept trying to go left (he didn't speak much english). the elevator was big enough for two people and had a max occupancy of six. We got up early to catch a bus back and next time i'll remember to check when the last bus leaves.

on the river Maas

... and they were walking all over the city playing for the people like us, sitting in the cafes and squares. That night was probably one of the most fun yet. We watched Gaelic football, hurley, and even a regular soccer match at a local Irish pub called Mullin's. We met a couple blokes, Marko and Nick, who live in Maastricht, and so we drank and walked all around the city with them..finally around 2am, we made it back to our rooms just in time to pass out onto the beds..
