Dreaming of Deutschland

Amber and I are on the plane bound for Frankfurt. To be honest, I am just as excited to head back to Germany (even if it is the sanitized culturally neutral environ of a mega-airport) as I am heading to Ahmedabad. Don't get me wrong, I am seriously juiced for this, but I really miss living in Germany. I also miss butchering the German language on a daily basis. But it's all relative right? It's been nearly seven years since I lived in Benrath, and I was a bit zealous when the path to India went through Deutschland. Sure, Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates was tempting, but the chance to have Amber experience Germany even a sliver of it, was exciting to me. Obviously, we'll travel there someday and do the country right. But for now, Amber will just have to settle for a taste. The taste just got a whole lot sweeter!! In the middle of blogging, Amber's duplicate seat got us an upgrade to business class! Europe in style, hells yeah!! (Man, I am using way too many exclamation points...) this trip just got a whole lot better. Well, I am pretty sure the plane is about to head out. So I'm going to wrap this up now. Next blog from Germany! Merry Christmas!
