Besides looking for food, we have not really had much time for much else. With Noah sleeping till noon and Louise napping from 3:00 to 6:00 – our exploring time is pretty limited. Fortunately we are not in a hurry to get to know this place.
The center of Bonn is quiet small and our temporary apartment is smack in the middle of it. This allows easy access to shops, which is great if you want cool shoes and hip jeans. Can’t really look though on my limited awake time when the kids are still perky. Saving that for later. It’s all about practical matters.
Today we did get to see a potential house, which was close to where Olof works and where the kids will be going to school, so we took the underground and several buses to explore. This funky house was 4 stories built on a hill, with the craziest attic living space I have seen. The shower/tub was almost in the center of the slanted roofed that only kids could stand in room with glass walls. Needless to say, this is not our first choice for our home.
The kids were not too amenable to walking much on our first day, so after lunch in the park and a wander to find the bus, we made our way to Olof’s work place just as it began to POUR rain. We decided to skip looking at their school and head back to the apartment and call it a day.
My usual efficiency must really take a backseat these days and it is a true trial of the very essence of my being!
