A quick update is included, but first, we wanted to tell you about an ad we saw in Linz.
There’s a gym called John Harris Fitness. In front of their door, they have a big poster that’s got a naked guy on it. The naked guy looks like the image that the naked scanners at airports produce. There’s a bar across the more revealing parts of the images with (roughly translated) “The naked scanners are coming…” See, they want you to get in shape so that you look good for the naked scanners. It’s funny… and depressing.
OK, now for the update!
We’re all moved out of the room in Linz and have traveled to Munich. We’re sitting in the hostel right now. We’re going to be here for a few days, then Saturday morning we’ll pack up and head to Frankfurt to catch our flight back to the States. As to what we’re going to do over the next few days… well, we’ll be as surprised as you! We really don’t have much planned except a meet up with Gretchen on Friday.
Before leaving though, we used some of those extra ingredients to make some Russian tea cakes. The only problem with that was that we decided to do it after we had sold the little over. Well then. Being inventive, Joni decided to just use the frying pan. They turned out surprisingly well.
And since we had to give the tupperware away to the people that bought it, we had to eat all the cookies in one day! Oh no!
Wednesday morning we got everything packed and cleaned up the room. It was kind of eerie seeing the room completely empty.
It was even more eerie though to see “the last nine months of our lives”, as Joni puts it, all packed up.
I think we could have done worse on the luggage front. What we have is actually fairly manageable and we won’t have to drag it around too much. We ended up getting rid of a ton of stuff we just couldn’t bring… like our drying rack or rugs. We threw all that in the kitchen with a big “free” sign.
And that’s your update.
