Deutschland

Well we did it. We survived two 12 hour direct flights, two 3 hour layovers and two time changes (we're still in the process of adjusting back to LA time) with a 1 year old! I really do feel like I can handle anything now. Rosie was a champ! She slept pretty good on the flight to Germany (the flight home not so much) and put up with us dragging her all over. 

Days One & Two

We spent the first few days exploring Nurnberg (the city my parents are living in) and recovering from jet lag.

Sankt Lozenz Kirche Cathedral

Hospital of the Holy Spirit - now it is a restaurant 

Gelato with Grandma and Grandpa

Steps of the Schoner Brunnen Fountain

Nurnberg garden

On our walk from my parents' apartment to the city square

Our first bretzel of the trip

In front of the Marriage Carousal Fountain  - one of Nurnberg's more disturbing fountains

Playing with Grandpa

Rosie's favorite spot

LA Zoo

One perk of Matt's job is free passes to the LA zoo which is awesome because there's no way I'd pay $17 a person to go. Rosie LOVED the petting zoo a little too much. She wanted to hug and kiss all the animals.

 Lil Sebastian

The giraffes were her second favorite

What we've been up to

 Trying to cool off at a splash pad during the heat wave. Rosie was not a fan so we only lasted about 20 minutes

Spent an afternoon at a park in Malibu trying to stay cool during the heat wave. We don't have ac and we're now California weather snobs so with highs in the 90s we tried to be anywhere but home.
