Back in Germany
So I am back in Germany for a few days for a TDY. A very pleasant German couple sat next to me on the flight down here and it gave me a chance to practice my language skills again. Apparently, I spoke better German than I thought.
Anyway, all was going well until the road to the autobahn was closed with absolutely no umleitung (detour) sign anywhere. Typical. 3 U-turns, 1 minute of shouting out curse words, and a brief snowstorm later, I’d wormed my way on an alternate route to the autobahn. Normally, it would not have been so bad but I had been seriously sleep deprived for the past few days. Still groggy today.
But it’s kind of cool being back here because it helps me realize how much I enjoy life in Italy.
