EUROPE!!
We have arrived! Actually, our big
adventure started yesterday at 4:30 a.m. Denver time.
We took one short flight to Dulles in Washington, D.C.,
then one loooong, cramped flight to Frankfurt,
Germany.
Even though we arrived at 6:15 a.m. Central European
Time, our good friend Eric Singer was waiting for us at
the airport. A quick bus ride took us to Darmstadt,
where Eric lives in a charming downtown area. No
skyscrapers here, no steel and glass giants, just small
shops and colorful German architecture. Cobblestones
mingling with asphalt and cement.
We were all tired, but determined to fight it! We
freshened up, then went in search of breakfast--cafe au
lait (espresso with steamed milk) and pastries.
