Okay, so today was a day of firsts and a journey (I know even after a month, yes one month, I still have a whole day of firsts... how cool!) After class and lunch, I took the girls, Indra and Elea to their gymnastics training by myself. It is about 30 minutes by car and while they were practicing I went grocery shopping by myself. When we finally got home around 6:30ish I decided I was going to go to the indoor pool by the Football Stadium. It is past the city center, so Petra explained how to get there saying it would take about 35 minutes. So I get on my bike and not five minutes into the ride my chain comes off. Well, I tried to put it back on, but that only got my hands really really dirty. So I walked the bike home and Christian, who was just finishing dinner, helped me put it back on saying that then I could still make it to the pool. (it closed at 10:30...or so I thought). So after a couple detours, I finally made it to the pool to find out that it was closed until Sept. 14th. So I biked home using only the hardest gears because well, after the chain incident we didn't quite realign the gears properly. When I finally got home around 8:45 I walked in the house and saw Christian. I said, "Yeah, the pool was closed" and he responded, "It says that on their website that I showed you yesterday". Then I thought "well that would have been nice to know at 6:30..." haha
Well at least I got a good bike ride in right...because now I am eating Haribo gummies.

Amy,
I've been missing you a lot. I'm sorry your bike kind of pooped out. I hope it's completely fixed soon as it seems like that's your only way around. OK, I love you!

PS-What does lymymi mean? Love you, miss you, mean it? That's a guess.
