We lived like the locals this weekend.
We spent time watching soccer.
Andrew is playing on a team at the base.
He doesn’t like practice, but he loves the games! (They lost 2-1, but it was better than last week!)
We went to Oktoberfest.
I should say they went to Oktoberfest because I was at a baby shower. It was just the boys at this event.
The big Oktoberfest is in Munich, but there are many other fests nearby. This one was on the base. Apparently the big crowd was there Saturday night – Sunday was more of a family day.
There were games for the kids and a bouncy castle. Thomas was a better shot than the last time he did this. (Funny – he wore the same shirt both times.)
We washed our cars. I have no photos to prove this, but trust me when I say they are much cleaner. Our neighbor washes his car – with a power washer – every week. We regularly see people washing their windows, scrubbing their front steps with scrub brushes, and sweeping their driveways. Cleanliness is important here so we jumped on the bandwagon.
See how well we’re acclimating?
