Guten Tag Berlin and Bonjour Paris!

So, first, I am sad to report I STILL don't have internet at the house, however, I am PRAYING that we get it soon. But, I'm not here to complain about the lack of access to the World Wide Web. Instead, I wanted to fill everyone in quickly on my plans.. So today is Sunday, which means I am just FOUR days away from my trip to Berlin! I'm so excited, and if you read my post from last week you know that I already have a brief outline of some things I want to do/see while I am there. Very, very exciting! Berlin!!!!! Eeek! In other news, the other night I booked a round-trip flight to.... wait for it.... PARIS! A girl I went to high school with, Jessica, is currently living in the French captial as an Au Pair as well. Although I wouldn't say we were ever really good friends, we are both Ohio girls living in foreign countries, which automatically bonds us. We have been keeping in touch on FaceBook every now and again to see how the other is doing in their respective country, and she was nice enough to extend an invitaion for me to come visit Paris somtime. So, I decided to take her up on the amazing offer! She is actually going back to the US at the beginning of September, and for the month of August I will mostly be gone, so end of July was the only time that worked for both of us. So the plans have been made for me to fly out of Köln headed for Paris on Wednesday evening, July 21st, and I'll stay until the evening of Sunday (the 25th). So yeah, kind of incredible life right now, sometimes I really can't believe it. I felt kind of bad/guilty that I have been living here in Europe for some time now, and haven't really used the opportunity to travel to some of the cities on my long list of places I want to visit. But, hopefully this trend of me traveling keeps up. Berlin this coming long weekend, and Paris in about a month. Very excited!! ..as if that's a surprise ;)

But sadly, I don't have more time at the moment and have to go. But hopefully I'll be able to come back and update soon! Miss and love everyone back home! xoxox MegLett
