Sightseeing

We have had a fun filled 2 days! Yesterday we went to Old Town/Alstadt and had a blast! It was fun to walk around and see the old buildings and shops. Jeff and I both ate a doner but Zane opted for McDonald's! After we got back, we all took a big nap because we were so exhausted! We just ordered room service for dinner. This morning we got up and ate the breakfast buffet at our hotel. It was good, but I found it kind of odd that they eat lunch meat for breakfast. When we were done eating, we walked to the hotel to the supermarket and bought some cokes and juice. It will be nice to have coca cola in our room- even if there isn't any ice. After that, we went to the Aquazoo. This is an AMAZING place! We got LOTS  of awesome photos. We got to see the Rhine River. We then went back to Old Town to eat at Fuchschen Alt. This was a good place to get authentic German food and at a reasonable price! Jeff and I both had knuckle of pork with saurkraut and mashed potatoes. Zane had a breaded schnitzel but ended up eating our mashed potatoes. Jeff acutally tried the saurkraut but he didn't like it- it tastes much like what it does in the U.S. After this we went for another walk around Old Town. We ended up down by the Rhine River. We walked along the river until we came to the Rhine Tower. We went up in the Rhine Tower and took some awesome pictures of Dusseldorf. By this time, Zane was getting grumpy and we were pretty wore out so we headed back to our hotel. Now I am in the process of uploading some pictures! Tomorrow we go to meet with the anesthesiologist at 2:00 pm, (7 am back home) We are so excited to get this treatment done! We wanted to get the majority of our sightseeing out of the way so Zane can spend some time in the hotel recovering. We are missing Ezekiel, but we know he is being well taken care of! We love it over here, but also miss being home!
