So last weekend the middle school basketball team I help coach played in Bonn, Germany. My boss was also in town from the states so I decided to drive so that I could get back to Brussels earlier. As I was driving I was reminded of a previous road trip to Germany where we were making a joke about how all roads in Germany lead to "Ausfahrt." On that trip we had traveled about 5 hours when one of the people in the car-I won't mention names KATE- was like- yeah they really do- what's up with that? So to let you in on something - the word for EXIT in German is AUSFAHRT- so yes all roads really do lead there:)
Remember how when you were younger and you went on a road trip it was fun to stop at the state lines and get your picture taken with the state sign? You'd think it might be even more exciting to get your picture taken when entering a new country-right?!! well here is a picture of the sign that tells you that you have entered Belgium. Pretty anti-climactic!!!
SO tomorrow I am off the Germany with some students to go snowboarding in the Alps- pretty fun. Since I don't ski or board it should be pretty interesting. I will take lots of pics and try to come back with all my bones in one piece!
