Over the jetlag and having fun!

It's Saturday morning here in Germany and Tracie and I have finally adjusted to the local time. We got lots of sleep on Thursday night and woke up reasonably sure that our internal clocks had synced up with the local time. Yesterday was lots of fun, primarily due to a three-hour visit to the local park with Casey, Rick and their three kids: Peighton (5), Rheagan (3) and Conner (1.5). The kids very nearly wore out the adults, but we managed to make it back home while still conscious.

In the evening, Casey and Tracie went to play bunco with Casey's friends, who were very nice and invited Tracie to join in. They had fun while Rick and I watched the kids at home. Fortunately, Beverly Hills Chihuahua and the Wii provided a lot of help in entertaining all three kids, while brown-bottle Heineken entertained Rick and I. Heinekin produced and sold in Holland is bottled in brown bottles, and is actually better than the green-bottle Heineken we get in the States.

Once the ladies were home and the kids were in bed, the Wii fun continued with Guitar Hero. Since I'm not a Wii owner, this was actually the first time I'd played Guitar Hero (quit laughing now!). I did all right on the easy level, but I didn't try getting past that.

Today we're going to head to Trier, a nearby town that's fun to visit for fun and shopping. The weather is overcast now, so we're not sure if we're going to get rain or not. We've had good weather so far, so we're going to hope it stays that way.
