I cannot tell you how many times I have wished that I could just close my eyes, click my heels and return to Germany for just one day. I lived here with my husband and family between 1998 and 2008 but have not been back since. I had a layover in Frankfurt and was unexpectedly bumped from my flight to Casablanca last night –my wish has come true- I have been given a day in Germany! And already in the short time I’ve managed to do some of my most favorite German things:
1. Kaffeeklatsch
My DEAR friend Susi came all the way from Heidelberg to have a coffee with me at the airport!
2. Eat perfect pretzels
3. Stare at walls of chocolate
4. Watch German T.V. Commercials
5.FRUHSTÜCK!
6. Marvel at Incredibly clean stairways
I still have a half day left here and I am sure I will add to the list. I am very excited to get to Morocco but meanwhile I will savor these next German hours! Ich liebe Deutschland!
QUESTION FOR KIDS: If you could go anywhere in the world for just 24 hours where would you go?
