Two awesome weekends are behind me Only 72 days. So slowly you can even begin to count the days. It is only the summer that lies ahead. And then it's off home. And I look forward to it. The year true all well and helped me a lot, but especially America and many Americans are just not my home. Stay here forever I could not, but I encourage me of too many things too much. The most beautiful is it when you get home. Yes. The highlight of the final week of the Six Flags visit was on Saturday. Awesome.
Friday evening was thoroughly first bought it. Self-catering, which of course for an amusement park, where prices know, not very customer friendly, are appropriate. Fruit, cookies, and the typical burgers / meatballs / meatball sandwiches (you can see that the au pairs come from all over Germany and argue about the names of certain foods can).
Saturday morning it was fully packed with all the drum and whistles going on. The trip was well and we were there on time at 10:30 clock to the park opening. Unfortunately, we saw the sign, which has brought our whole planning by each other .... The bringing of food and drink are prohibited in the park. Well great, and then what our whole planning? So there was already at 10.30 clock burgers with stolen Mäcces ketchup, strawberries and Oreos with Peanutbutter. wants to depravity the whole thing after all not one. Then, the next observation. Americans do not take backpacks into the park. The women did not have pockets here. Hmm, think this has to be against us and we have restricted to a backpack, valuables were put into the pocket. But not without first to pack into the most beautiful hand pocket of the world, a Ziplock bag. This was later proved to be useful yet, as this money, mobile phone and bank card in the flume and the rain stayed dry. At the checkout we had to back a last time, as our credit card but we just had with no ID. This was, however, required to pay. All in all then we have messed things for an hour. But we were finally there, have our backpack for whopping $ 11 included. With easy to leave the train is there is nothing. The backpacks have been allowed not to. And thus it can be either inclusive of this $ 11 the day and open the locker again, or enter before each track in an accompanying box. The only costs $ 1, but if you aufhat it once you lose it and have to pay again. So we liked the first version but better.
And then it was also happening at last. Roller coasters were great, although we have not done anything. There were some oddities such as a web in which one in a 90 ° angle high and again shuts down, a train, traveling in two trains side by side, squirrels and marmots, which you have at home there, Mountain Rafting in which one was really wet when we had bad luck (we all had very good luck ), a drying machine for the whole family at each water rides and much more. But normal looping coaster, wooden coaster and swing boat were there. It was fun viiiiel
. In between there was a lunch break, where were then destroyed and the purely smuggled Fruit Roll-ups and gummi bears. In the evening, was still at the Bowling for Soup concert. I have previously never really heard of the band but the concert was great. Meanwhile, I know even several songs from those and also the rain that has me down to the underwear can be wet, was eventually not even that bad.
What has annoyed me but then a bit was the fact that I was hit twice. Made of things that threw the bands (Bowling for Soup and their opening act) in the crowd. First there was the drum stick from "Beyond Hope Lies in the face and then a Pleck the guitarist of" Bowling for Soup, "which has landed in my arms, but then fell off. Alicia landed the drum stick, the Pleck grabbed the woman behind me. But that was fine. Finally, there was a cute little parade and we were dead tired and super exhausted back home.
On Sunday morning the mood was not so exhilarating. I've found that my trip that I wanted to do was booked. Tammy told me then offered to drive a week earlier. Most of it is anyway, in my week vacation, I still wanted to take. There are but two extra vacation days and so it is now definitely from 23.08.-29.08. go from San Francisco to LA. The flight and the hotel the first night I book hopefully tomorrow when I get the remaining information. Then I have to see tomorrow just yet, exactly when I fly home and will ensure the flight . A reinforcement Hach, but I'm looking forward to my holiday. The week I will deserve it, even if I have a little afraid of strangers. But it is great.
late on Sunday I was picked up Alicia and we went to Bergenfield to the movies, where we have not made Wiebke and Jessi. I can only advise you, "The Hangover" look. A sooo funny movie, great. Then we went to Englewood Cliffs to the View Point. This is a looooong beautiful park, right on the Hudson from the George Washington Bridge, with a playground, lots of grass area and benches and tables. Super super nice and we had a lot of fun.
Finally, Alicia and I are still Wiebke them to Images from the previous day to share, chatting and eating pizza. Late in the evening we went back home and we ended the weekend a success.
The week was ok then. Somehow my Hostmum not quite as good on it, so that everything annoys me a bit and I also too much work. That has still not completely changed. But hey, just ten weeks! Then I got my last working day. Herrlich. On Tuesday my little
their graduation ceremony has had from the Pre-School. The children have put a program off the ground and got on the end of a small diploma. My kids loved the whole Gehampel and chanting on the Stage is not, so they most of the time was up there with folded arms. And I've just got flat out, and mitgetanzt the chicken dance to motivate them. Unfortunately did not work out. Then I had to then continue for Tammy to New York because they had double booked for an audition. Driving in the City is an experience, level when driving on 5th Avenue or Macy's over. Well, most of the time I'm stupid but then sat in the car in the parking zone and hoped that the police did not come and write me a ticket. But it all went well.
From the Starbucks on Thursday evening we have made a DVD evening with Elena, as her family is kind enough to run away for a week and they had to storm-free. First it was then still to Starbucks to pick up the right amount of caffeine and then Elena in her villa. First a guided tour and then work out how the Nobel television work with the many connected devices. We then "Epic Movie" (a Verarsche from many other movies like Narnia, Harry Potter, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory ...) looked at and are then passed through movie trailer to see what even the calling at a time when we still are here. There are some good movies that want to be seen.
On Friday, my host parents in the morning with the small to the doctor and then I took them to her with my Hostmum Grandparents moved to Long Iceland. The outward journey took just one hour instead of 30 minutes and on the return trip, we are completely stuck in traffic. The worst was when I at some point in the middle of Queens on an eight-lane road was and had no idea where I had to go. But after 2.5 hours way back, too, was done. My Hostmum then invited me to dinner and then went to pack it home and ... stuff. Yes. Because I had my first sleepover in America and it was AWESOME! The absence of Elena's family was being exploited and we (Alicia, Elena, Wiebke and I) went for a night after their weekend house in Tuxedo. I tell you, make you feel like a Princess. It is the typical American home of the rich. Noble kitchen with real chandeliers, classy, unused dining room, lots of fancy bedroom, where the patterned wallpaper, bedding and curtains were identical, even more patterned wallpaper, huge flat screen TV's everywhere, mega plot of land with gardens, a giant Poll and heated Jacuzzi , a fully finished basement with bar and play area for young and old, and and and .... There is simply amazing. All around are only houses that are exactly the same. This is a super-rich, well how shall I call it the village in a village, which is cordoned off by fences and walls, and where one only with a special plate the car enters. Just super great with so much greenery around it. It feels a bit like such a fairy tale forest.
Once there we went again on a tour through the entire house. Then had the two poodle puppies who have been living recently in the family, get out again. They are all day in a puppy cage and then get there only to play and do business out. Unfortunately, one of the two it is no longer done on time and said his big business in the middle of the good in the elegant dining room carpet. That was not just so nice. But sweet are the two anyway. Then the wine I had brought from here (with permission of course) was opened. One has to eventually trigger an unbelievable evening.
The pool would then also be tested. Rein in the swimming clothes and down. We did not find out not quite like the sound system worked in the basement. Otherwise we would have music that is out there, been everywhere around the pool. But it also went without and after a daring leap into the cool water it was warm swimming pool and escape the vacuum cleaner. The thing moves arbitrarily around the base of the pool and makes one a little scared.
When it was too cold it was in the hot tub. Herrlich why and just a dream, to lie there under the stars in the dark. After a few pictures, a second bed large pool at the deep end and a second drink, it went to four and a half hours later pure. By now it was already two clock. Pajamas, and eat ice cream. We have then started to "Catch Me If You Can" to look. Long as we were but no longer by about three and then were all in bed or on the sofa, because there I was sleeping with Alicia. Wiebke and Elena were together in the Au Pair room.
The next morning, well, at about eleven o'clock, it was called then wake up and wait until Elena's Hostdad was gone, who let in the dogs out and a worker. Then tighten and after a breakfast that consisted of Oreokeksen and cheese sticks, go for shopping in the Woodbury Commons Outlet Village. A small Village in the village where there are Outletstore next outlet gates. From Prada to Gucci to Converse, Puma and Adidas. Everything your heart desires. I found there, then a pair of white Chucks, black sandals and two T-shirts.
The best part were not the clothes, but the German sausage stand.
Herrlich. There was sausage, frankfurters, potato salad and everything else you could wish's hearts. The potato salad was not quite the hit, the German sausage with mustard but all the better. I was disturbed only that we were served by an Indian-looking Americans. Afterwards, however, someone came to us as a German has identified and started to give German chunks of itself. Toll great. The shopping tour was unfortunately interrupted by my Hostmum. That I should work in the evening, I did. But even then I should be back by 5 at home, I was a bit upset, because the way home, after all, lasts one hour. So go fetch things and new items into the car. Of course, as it should be otherwise, then we are still caught in a traffic jam. I call tell, that I will come later and get the answer: "Do not worry, take your time, before we go away until later." Oh great lot. So we are even to Elena and there have noodles with hunter's sauce and for dessert, rice pudding made. Yummy, a very German day, as one notices. At seven I was back to sitting around at home until half past nine and I just stupid because the child has seen with their parents TV. Then I learn that they are going but not gone and I can still do something else. Very great. If I had known this sooner we would have stayed one night. Well. We went again to the cinema and we have "The Proposal" looked. A funny movie with Sandra Bullock. It would have been unusual for a week if I was not in the cinema. At one o'clock last night I lay in bed and sleep was now fairly long.
Today was Father's Day here in America and then the whole family is flown. This allowed we put our plan into action: make Lapskaus. Yummy. From my Hostmum gabs then the official permission and Wiebke and Alicia came here. Together we went shopping and then cook. Even Wiebke, who had no idea what we have such as cook, we get tired. So bad it can not then yes you have tasted. I found it delicious clean, a little taste of orgasm, almost as good as at home.
For dessert there was ice. I was then even the very back of rum asked to work. Actually, the question came (as so often in fact) if I had not any plans for the evening. I, yes I do not know yet, let's see, why? Well it looks like because I've had last weekend completely free, and yes, to which this will also be the same? Although they would not go away but still, I should work anyway. Since you can not say no then yes. But instead of that of her then comes the simple sentence, I want you to work, it is done so surreptitiously.
My work but mainly it to watch TV and go shopping. The grade was then still.
The coming week is exhausting, because it is the first holiday week for my little one. No school, through work. I'm curious to see how this is and how much will come up with to deal with them. Maybe we get a visit to the Zoo back and otherwise I just hope the weather is good and we can go swimming. The chances are not so good (weather forecast for the next few days: rain, rain, rain and more rain).
I hope I come back tomorrow to load the pictures up. Now it goes to bed but thank first and strength for the first holiday week. Yes.
Today I am again with Wiebke been down on the Hudson. Meanwhile, the $ 5 admission per car. Thus, it is also worth a few hours we stayed there, having previously gefuttert bought food and made a little walk. Then we went to Starbucks and hey presto the day and thus the weekend was over. Now I hope the next week passes quickly and not too strenuous, is the weekend is great and I'm in a good mood.
