Ahhh, I am always happy when Saturday comes because it means I get a break and Michael does the morning feed/change/play time. That is the time he realizes how hard my job is. He always needs a nap whenever they take their morning nap, and then tells me that he can’t believe I do this every day, all day. In the afternoon, we walked around Marienplatz. It was quite difficult because all the huts for the Christmas markets were breaking down. I would think that they would wait until the 26th. They blocked almost all the “large” areas, so it was a maze with our stroller. We’d go down a path, only to find a parked truck was a little too close to the wall, so we’d have to back up and find another way. We ran into the couple we met on our trip to Ikea, Kristin and Gustavo and their son Tyler. It was a nice suprise and we spent about 30 minutes talking about misc. stuff. It was also the first time that they saw the boys. I asked them about public vs. private insurance and their impression was that private is better because you have a better choice of doctors. They also agreed that the pediatrician that I saw was not good at all, so I should find another one, hopefully one in my neighborhood. But she also mentioned that my neighborhood might be filled with wealthy folks who have all private and that finding a doctor that takes public insurance within walking distance might be hard. She also mentioned that the doctor should’ve given the boys Vitamin D pills for this winter since they won’t see much sun, and that all doctors give it for the first 2 winters for kids. Hmmm…I didn’t get any from my evil doctor. I think I can pick some up at the apotheke without a prescription. It was so good to see them again, what a small city this is! It really did make us feel “local”. And guess where we ate to celebrate Christmas? McDonalds! Oh, their fries are the best! I personally prefer BK cheeseburgers, but BK doesn’t even come close to their fries. How American are we? We went into the Frauenkirchen, it’s called the woman’s church because it has two towers with these boob looking tops. It is one of Munich’s markers, like how the Space Needle is Seattle’s. It wasn’t very ornate inside, but it was just very big! We walked back home, it was a very nice leisure walk. It’s so weird because I know our neighborhood area very well, so we were walking and walking and I was like, ok this part is all new, never seen it before, then all of a sudden we hit our neighborhood and I was like “Hey! I know this!”. I’m sure I will know the neighborhood a lot better in the spring and summer when I will do more walking rather than taking the train. For dinner, we had our favorite frozen pizza, mmmm….
