Trip to the German Hairdresser

Today I went on my first adventure to a German hair stylist. A lady I work with gets her hair done at Hair & More and she called to make an appointment for me. I will admit I was telling her that I might just want to get a cut and wait on the color. I was thinking of every possible scenario of hair gone bad! So I decided to go through with it. My appointment was at 5:45. I arrived at the mall around 5. There was NO parking anywhere! After I found a spot, off I went. I arrived at the salon and was greeted with a smile. I was seated and offered some drinks. Nicole, the hair dresser, came to speak with me about my hair. She told me that her English isn't the best. She spoke excellent English! I did the best I could to speak in German. So, she colored and cut my hair. Right after she rinsed the hair out I told her the color looked great, and it did. I figured if this was the part to get right it was the cut. All went well. I will be going back to see her.

Today I passed my driver's test. This is not an easy test, nothing like the ones in the states. Everyone told me to study, so I did. It payed off, I got a 97%!!!!! Brian has been warning others to stay off the autobahn.

Schnitzel Haus

We met some friends for dinner last night at the Schnitzel Haus. I got my plate and just stared at it in shock.
