First day; sky, blue sky

So I'm here! safe and sound! Long day. On the plane there were some Camp Adventure kids. The flight was awful; the guy behind me left his light for about 6 out of the 8 hours, it was impossible to sleep. We finally arrived in Frankfurt around 11, German customs was the easiest customs I've ever been through!!!! They didn't even ask me any questions at all. Weird kind of. 

So, there are only 5 of us here. One of them, Mike, has done this a few times, so he is our leader, he's 25. The rest of us are 23/22 years old. Everyone is really nice and we all seem to be getting along so far. I really don't think any of us will have problems with each other. We are all completely different, different personalities, but we are all getting along great. The apartments are 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, full kitchen, small dining room, and living room. The 2 boys share an apartment across the hall from me and the 3 girls. We each have our own room. I actually lucked out and got the "master bedroom" so I have my own bathroom. 

The base is kind of random, it is split into different bases. We live on the base that has elementary/middle/high schools, apartments, a child care center, the big grocery store, movie theater, and a lot of construction. Most of the military men and women are on a base that is about 10 minutes away. This is where we got our military ids, where most of us will be working, they have a few child care centers on that base, there is also the gym, some fast food, the bank. We will most likely be working there. None of us are really sure what we are doing tomorrow. 

I am already unpacked. The rest of the day we went on a brief tour of the bases, we went grocery shopping and went back to our apartments to finish unpacking and to relax. The 5 of us had a short meeting then we headed to Wiesbaden at about 8:30. It is about a 15 minute walk downtown. We stopped and had some amazing kebabs, I haven't had those since Australia :) We walked around a little bit and headed back. I can't wait to see the city in the daylight. I would really like to practice speaking the German language, the people at the kebab place was pretty cool about it, except one guy who was frustrated. 

Tomorrow, we will see what is in store for us. Our leader Mike, doesn't know what we are going to be up to either. I will write tomorrow. I love you all.
