Espelkamp

Wooo!!! We´re in Espelkamp, Germany, where we started and finished our choir tour two years ago! We´re staying with Lila and Didi and their three girls, and we´re even going to sing with the youth choir on Sunday morning at church! We love it here!

We took the train out of Berlin this morning, said goodbye to Hesha and Ella and their adorable kids, and arrived in Espelkamp around 3pm. We just got back from a delightful after-dinner stroll around the neighbourhood, where we stood at the end of Lila´s brother´s driveway and chatted for like 20 minutes. It´s such a relaxed pace around here, it´s great.

In Berlin Michelle and I bought Thai Fisherman´s pants, which are the most comfortable pants in the world ("These are like the pants version of a muumu!" - Heather, on Fishermans pants). Tonight as we were walking around the neighbourhood, I looked at Michelle, decked out in her melon green softshell and bright orange fishermans pants and said "you look like a walking fruit salad!" She didn´t seem super enthused about that, which caused me to reflect that if she looked like a fruit salad, my black softshell over my light blue shirt and dark blue pants made me look like either a walking blueberry, or a walking bruise. Good times!

Movie note: Last night we saw Pirates of the Caribbean 3, which was a lot of fun, and redeemed our Berlin movie memories of Spiderman 3. Woot!
