haven't blogged in a while, so I'll split what's happened into two posts.
After a long week in D.C. with lots of sessions about living with a German family, visits with our congress(wo)men, cool people, and late nights, I finally got to Germany. It was really fun to hang out with the CB and AFS kids all week, but I think we were all pretty anxious to get to our new families. Getting through the airport with 92 excited exchange students and only two chaperones was difficult, but we eventually made it. The flight lasted about 6 ½ hours, but I couldn't sleep at all. When we got to Germany, we had to go up two escalators with our bag, and I accidentally didn't have mine fully on the step, so I fell backwards with it... It was embarrassing, but the kid in front of me was nice and he grabbed it for me. My family, (Corina, Michael, Louisa, and Lorenz Plattner) were waiting for me at the top with a sign, and we checked out with the AFS volunteers.
