For the first chunk of the day we did nothing. Slept in, I did some computer stuff, we packed, eventually showered, hung around our little apartment. At 3:15 one of the facilitators called and said be ready in 1/2 an hour to get picked up to get your paperwork and go to the train. Cool! Not 5 mins later, Nico called. “I’m here, come out.” Argghhh. Rush, rush. Go to SDA again, see the VanDykes and the Whaleys, watch their papers get signed, have our turn! Jump back into Nico’s car. When we get to the train station, he says we have plenty of time but hurry! We rush into the station and stand with our stuff for a few minutes while he goes somewhere, then he rushes back with tickets and off we go again. Onto the platform, into the train and find our compartment. It’s small but private. I feel NOTHING like Harry Potter going to Hogwarts :(. Nobody even offered us any chocolate frogs. Bummer. But if you can tell, here’s what it looks like:
And a few other pics just for fun.
Butter (the real stuff – no margarine here):
Milk (This is 2.6%, the lowest we could find):
For Andrew (our apt # – how cool is that?):
Bathroom and wierd low wall light switches (there are 2 with an electric outlet underneath. the right one is for the bathroom and the one on the left is for the kitchen!):
And some new friends – me and Marsha Whaley (adopting Nadya) and me and Jenny VanDyke (adopting Stacy and Bella – no husbands, hee hee):
