AUSFAHRT

Not much to report today...Just had to add this because it cracks up the whole family. The exit signs on the autobahn (picture 2...yeah, not too clear, I was in a moving car okay) say "Ausfahrt" pronounced the way you read it. The kids will be in the car fighting, reading, singing or whatever and all stops to say "AUSFAHRT" as soon as we see an exit sign. Fahrt is also used in about 5 other words Einfahrt, zufahrt...ya see "farts" everywhere here! It's awesome! Gracie has also dubbed the little Euro cars you see everywhere in Italy "chubby cars". So we call those out as we see em too. (Picture one actually means resident parking only.)
Jack went to preview his school yesterday. It was great. The school is like a huge house. Each room is designed for different play or projects. He has a painting room, wood working room, blocks/dinosaurs/truck room, reading room, circle room, and more but I can't remember. The school has about 80 kids but there are only about 10 kids in his class (the crocodiles). His teacher speaks great English, but she will speak German to him. She's great. OHHHH, best part...there is no summer vacation for his school. He gets 2 weeks off in May and then 3 weeks off in Aug/Sept. I wonder if they will take Molly and Gracie too...I'm kidding!
That's all for now...no school tomorrow...teacher planning day, ugggggg
