I had surgery about a week ago. It was so silly. They told me I needed all these pins and screws. But when I wake up there's 2 tiny holes in my ankle and no repair done at all. I am very upset. There can't be nothing wrong. It hurts so bad! I can't walk uphill because it doesn't even bend. (I find out later in 2004 they missed a ton of damage and eventually got it repaired the right way by a civilian doctor in NM.) I get 2 weeks of medical leave woohoo! I put in forms to go home but am only allowed 7 days.

Oktoberfest
Sep 20-23 2002
Eric and I had just been to Munich not too long ago, but he really wanted to show me Oktoberfest, and I really wanted to see it. He tells me a lot of stories of when he went with a few other soldiers that have moved on already. He seems so excited.

Berlin Germany
July 3-6 2002,
Wow what an awesome week this was! Eric and I took a train to Berlin this time. There was a long and painful walking tour around most of the city. We saw places Hitler had stayed. The coolest was seeing parts of the Berlin Wall and Checkpoint Charlie. We each bought a piece of the wall for a souvenir. Sometimes I forget I'm here doing this stuff. It's so unreal.The streetlights are very cute. The little green and red men for walking have these neat hats.

Munchen (Munich) Germany
June 14-17 2001
Munich is probably the 3rd famous city I've heard of before. We hopped on a train from the Mainz hauptbahnhof down to Bavaria. The first notable place we visited was called Residenz. It's a Bavarian palace that our soldiers bombed in WWII. They started construction right after the war, and now it's a museum. It's filled with treasures that are centuries old. I just love seeing things like this. It's impossible to see this kind of history in the USA.

France Day 4
May 27, 2002 - Disneyland Paris
Being from California I've gone to Disneyland a few times as a kid. Evans is from Florida so he's been to Disney World. What better way to spend our last day in Paris than to go to Euro Disney? It's kind of far out of town so we had to take a train. I'm so exited about this trip. I wish I could have brought my family here. We're all Disney nuts.
