We've landed...

Hello everyone!
Just a note to let you know that we are all alive and well!
Here is a little run down of what we have done and are doing now:
...Flight to Chicago+Flight to Frankfurt= A LONG DAY OF FLYING! the boys all did really well on both trips. On the 8 hour flight they showed 4 movies! If you ask Ben he will tell you the flight was "easy", I'm still not a huge fan of trying to sleep sitting up, but I made it (even if I did feel claustrophobic! AHH!)
...bus from Airport to our base scheduled to take 3 hours--- 8 hours later, we arrive. There was terrible traffic (or just no movement at all) on the autobahn. Also for the first hour there was no air flowing on the bus so we all were very sweaty and uncomfortable...
... still recovering from jet lag and a 7 hour time change....
...living in a "hotel" with a kitchenette...
...not allowed to drive until we pass a German driving test...
...walking everywhere we go...
...enjoying the cool, Bavarian air...
...trying to entertain 3 boys and keep boys from going stir-crazy...

So we are HERE, not settled....needing more sleep.... and trying to think of things to do with the boys that don't involved anything too complicated.

BRING ON THE ADVENTURE!

Wow. What a horrible trip. All of that would have been bad - but with 3 boys! Ugh. Glad you made it there safe though. Please keep posting. I really want to keep up with you guys. Hope you get some sleep!
