Well last Sunday we were allowed to go and visit the soldiers up in Grafenwohr Training area. Now Graf is about a two hour drive northeast of where we are. I got to drive on the autobahn for most of that time. And let me just say, my car liked it ALOT!!! heehee. I did get lost on the way up there, my GPS wanted to take me off onto this "unmarked gravel road" in the mountain side.. I was like.. I dont think so. And turned around, thank goodness for a photographic memory or I would have been completely lost because my GPS kept screaming at me to turn around and go back. Long story short, we made it safely and thuroughly enjoyed the day. It was truly blessed. It was sunny and about 75 degree's and a nice cool breeze. We took a bunch of pictures that you can see at our picasa site.

I took a short video below, and then Carmen took over, so I will add one of the few that she took.
After our lovely lunch we went for a drive to the local PX, which was HUGE!!!! And we got coffee... aaahhhh its the little things in life I tell ya. We ended up driving around and parking in a parking lot because the girls fell asleep, so Jim and I got to talk, which is always nice. He had to go back to work, so we left around 5pm and headed home.
The trip back was less exciting, but much needed. The girls slept most of the way.. well other than the part about crying for daddy.. but thats another topic for another day.
All in all, well worth the drive and headache. I was really happy we went!
