We’re narrowing down our list of “Firsts”!


We’re finishing our first full day here in Dusseldorf! Our big news for the day is that Jeff’s suit bag arrived! So now he doesn’t have to go to work looking like an American noob. Phew! Next big news, we’ve narrowed down our apartment options from eight to two! We started the day getting breakfast at a little bakery near our hotel then spent the rest of the day looking for our new home and walking around our potential new neighborhood (in which they’re setting up a small Christmas market!). We also survived our first trip to the grocery store thanks to Jeff’s fancy Google translate app and attempted to have our first conversations in German. Thankfully everyone so far has spoken back to us in English… apparently, we look/sound like foreigners. J Tomorrow we’re planning to take a closer look at the Rhine, walk around a big park we saw on our apartment tour and check out downtown Dusseldorf. Who knows what else we might stumble upon!
