I give you a huge pat on the back for making it this far, I think I would have had a minor breakdown by now. Looks like you all are handling things well and rolling with the punches. I am amused by the byok thing. I don't like hotdogs in packages, the ones in jars look even more nasty....lol. I'm loving seeing this experience through your writings.

That's right up there with going to a german-only speaking gyno. @ Remus - What the hell is a 'Poggenpohl'?? Sounds painful. And, Christina, jar dogs really do become second nature over time? I'm drawn to them with the same morbid curiosity that compels most drivers to slow down & rubber-neck at the site of an accident.

I've lived here for so long that I sometimes forget about funny stuff like that and just take it for granted that the hot dogs come in jars. Ha! I love those pictures.

I knew Germans took their kitchens with them ... but I figured that was more in an ownership society, not renting flats. Yikes, where do store it when you are moving or in transition ? And it can't be too cheap to have someone take it part and move it for you either. I think has to do with tax laws ... also why you don't see much in the way of closets ... they are a taxable "room" Thank goodness for IEKA ... eh ? Glad to see you connected and with pics.

I guess it's on of the reasons that Germans live in the same flat for many years, rather than moving as much as Americans do. I agree about the byok thing being bizzare.

When people move in Germany they take their kitchens with them, which I always found weird as it might not fit in their next flat or house. The Smart Cars are great, my neighbour has one. Gute Fahrt still makes me laugh after all these years :) Great photos…..the kitchen thing is a shock at first.
