Man, the French won again!

It was a nuthouse here in Frankfurt having France beat Brasil (the way they spell it). A little oddity was the amount of Asian tourists here - from all over Japan, Vietnam, China. With Tom gone home I am flying solo, but meeting a bunch of people. Americans from Texas, Cali, AZ, CO. One is a Army guy on leave and decided to take a free military flight over to here to hang out. We watched the games and he turned out to be a very bright kid, after a stint in the Army he is going to Grad school and then looking at one of the consulting firms. I told him I have a sweet spot for PWC. Any way he kept plugging me for info from a recruiters stand point - like all night, but in a nice way - kinda funny. Don't worry Tony, if he is going into insurance we got him.

I stayed in Karben last night - the hotel billed itself as in Frankfurt. Yeah and Dixon, IL is in Chicago. Actually it was Wunderbar! No not Wunderland. Very nice small town people - had to get by on my Deutsch. It has cemented for me the fact that kids should learn a second language - not just a few words in school but be fluent.

Fashion trend over here that is kinda funny (not that I am looking) is clear bra straps. I don't think we have them in the US but I don't think they would work either. And no, these were in plain sight in public - no funny stuff. Honestly I thought they were clear medical tape.

I can't wait to get home, do some grilling, relax and there is something else coming up...

On to Muchen for next 3 days. I was told by someone they have a bike tour that includes the pubs! The weather is sunny, high 80's not a cloud in the sky here in Frankfurt.
