We finally arrived at our hotel just after the clock struck midnight last night. Wandering through a fairly residential area with no 'real' map of how to get to our hotel made it trying, especially after 15 hours of trains and transfers from Prague. One delayed train can change your whole day.
But we were able to download the season finale of The Office once we got to our hotel, so that made us smile. God, we love that show.
We are ready to come home. I am at least a little embarrassed to say that. I want to say, "No, we don't want to come back yet, Europe feels like home." But we're ready for 1 comfortable bed (not 2 twins side by side) and a shower with a curtain and a few other requirements we have for living well. :)
Our beautiful and dear friends Mike and Stacy Stavlund have had quite the week thus far. She gave birth to twins (one boy and one girl) on Tuesday. There have been some (expected) complications, but we are all hopeful. What beautiful people. What beautiful children. It's wonderful seeing all the comments on their blog...being reminded what a beautiful community surrounds them. We look forward to seeing them face to face soon.
But for now, a 20-minute train to Amsterdam (as our hotel is just outside the city) for our last weekend in Europe for this trip. We come home Tuesday. See you soon.

So, you are leaving Europe as we arrive in Germany. How about that?
We leave Wed. and will be mostly in Frankfurt. I trust if you have some thoughts on where we should visit, you'll let me know....
All right then. I hope we see you soon. Holly, I'm sorry i haven't called you yet. I really do want to hear how all is going and hope and pray for your health.
Love to you both,
Shelley
