Skylar and I will be spending five months (May - October) in Heilbronn, Germany with as much additional travel as we can. Here I will post updates and pictures from our adventures.

20 August - 36 degrees Celsius

I ran with Skylar to camp again. Even at 7am it was hot! By noon it was 36 degrees (96F) and on the third floor, it is just hot! I think my brain melted.

I have been trying to save money for our trip to Venice next month and therefore staying home quite a bit. Going a little stir crazy, but it will be worth it. I finally got paid today, so I booked the hostel. It is just outside the city, but there are bus and shuttle rides, so I'm hoping it all works out. Couldn't beat the price and at least there is a pool. I have a feeling it is going to be a bit of a party type place meant to appeal to young college kids on vacation, but that's ok. Now I just need to start working on our itinerary.. what is there to do in Venice?

I was thoroughly glistening with exercise moisture when I went to pick up Skylar this afternoon. He was all muddy and said they were playing by a creek, but the water was too cold to get in. I would've given anything to jump in a cold creek today. He was happy that he learned a bunch of cool tricks with cat's cradle (remember that game with the string around your fingers). He learned Gummi (rubber band), Krone (crown), and a few others. Now he has pieces of string everywhere.

It is the boy downstair's birthday tomorrow so they started partying early and went all night long. I think all of the neighbors complained.
