Hi! I'm a newbie. I joined MM a short time ago and have learned so much and I would love to learn more! We're in Georgia right now but DH was selected to go to Germany with his job so sometime before summer is out we'll be in Germany. I am attempting to learn German...so far I can say, "Hi...how are you?" I think the next important phrase to learn is..."Excuse me, where is the bathroom?" ;D I look forward to getting to know all of you.... Kathy

Welcome!!! I took some German in college (which wasn't too long ago) but itis a tough language to learn!!! You have to talk with snot in your throat lol!!! I went to Switzerland 5 years ago and they speak German, and even after learning 2 years of German, I couldn't keep up with them at all!! Most people over there speak English so you should be good! Welcome to the board!! It's a fun place! Feel free to jump in on swaps and stuff! We are working to come up with some new ideas to keep this place hoppin'!

Hey, Kathy, where in GA are you? I am in Bluffton, which is just before you get to HIlton Head... about 30 min from Savannah. I was wondering if your hubby is stationed near SAV anywhere...

Hi, Michelle!
We're in Augusta right now. We have family in Bluffton - how cool is that? We were actually in Hilton Head in October and it was so beautiful! I hope we can get back there before we leave for Germany.
Kathy
