Although fall does bring a major slowing of the Viking river cruisers, soon the Christmas market crowd will arrive.... :-O But luckily I know a few other Americans in town so no need to go trawling the Hauptmarkt. Looking forward to hearing your solution, and yes... let's have a coffee/witness-fest in 4 years!

If you have any desire to come to Nürnberg for the day, we could swap witnesses. Wisconsin Solidarity and all. :) Either way, hope you can find a fellow Ami somewhere!

In my first year here I did greet someone I heard speaking American English, and it ended up being a dreadful mistake. I never did that again. I do enjoy online contact with fellow bloggers, though!Ami im Schwabenlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13148291164062226269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8775665740005660017.post-74671561259340187642016-10-07T23:06:45.697+02:002016-10-07T23:06:45.697+02:00I'd offer to sign it for you, but I'm in K...I'd offer to sign it for you, but I'm in Konstanz. Luckily, there's plenty of Americans here at the uni so I'll find a student next week to sign mine. I think it's a ridiculous law that they pass, along with this voter ID junk. It's as if they think that by leaving the States we're not trying to get away from other Americans! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8775665740005660017.post-22497668503110511782016-10-07T10:51:20.078+02:002016-10-07T10:51:20.078+02:00Thank you!

I appreciate your offer, and you'll definitely hear from me if I need one of your colleagues. Is Moo a US citizen? Maybe I could come to your place and he could sign it. :-) There's nothing that says the signature must be legible...Ami im Schwabenlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13148291164062226269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8775665740005660017.post-85031722657553011222016-10-07T08:30:15.803+02:002016-10-07T08:30:15.803+02:00Oh no!
