Some not so great news....

So I am here in Europe having the time of my life and finding out that this is when God is choosing to test me more than ever before. I fell yesterday and broke a bone in my foot. We thought it was just a sprain, but I went to the hospital (in a German Ambulance) and found out that I brok the small bone below your pinky toe on my right foot. I am on bed rest pretty much for the next couple of days and on monday I have surgury. I have to have surgury for the tendon does not separate from the bone. I will be in the hospital for a couple of days and then 2 weeks of recovery. Obviously this is not what I wanted, but we are going to make it work. It is good timing because I start my home stay on monday, so I won't be moving around. As of now I am in a lot of pain and wishing that this didn't happen 4 days into my trip. I am not coming home, the thought didn't even cross my mind. People in Germany get injured too, it's not ideal, but I am going to work it out and do it. I will write more soon!

I'm here!!!

I am safely in Gelnhausen, Germany. The keyboards are a little different here, so it might be a little messed up. so far I am having a great time. Yesterday we pretty worthless because we were so tired, but we had a great dinner and then went to bed. Today we had our first class, it was held in a courtyard outside of a church. It was pretty amazing. We have been exploring the city and so far I have tried a donar kabob, which is lamb and real weiner schnitzel. The weiner schinitzel was little weird, I am trying to do it all and soak as much culture as I can. Tomorrow we are going on a site visit it Opel, which is similar to General Motors. We are only here for one more day, then we move on to Nuremburg Germany, and then on sunday I start a home stay for 3 weeks. We are moving all the time and I will try and keep you as updated as possible! I will write more later!

I have a Blog!
