Germany Trip - May 21st, 2002

Tuesday October 04, 2005

While Bryan's mom, uncle & grandmother were at an appointment, we spent a couple of hours walking around the Breuningerland Mall near Oma's house.  We were nervous at first, but we found our way around and even got some money and ordered a pastry and a Coke.  Several people thought that we were German and started to talk to us.  Once they realized that we were American, most were able to speak to us in English.  Later that afternoon, we drove around Stuttgart (where Bryan's mom lived during her teens) and visited the Mercedes Museum there.  Then we went to dinner at Uncle Bernd's favorite Indian restaurant with his friend Johanna and her daughter Karoline.  While we were there, Sandra, Rafa & Alex arrived from Spain and joined us at the restaurant.     

Here's a quick menu to the various pictures sets:

  • Sindelfingen- Here are some pictures at Oma's house in Sindelfingen.
  • Indian Restaurant- We went to dinner at an Indian restaurant with Uncle Bernd's friends.
