June 10th

So Friday has arrived! We started the day by going to get a car inspection done, so we went to the mans world. The inspection took a little longer than we thought but their van passed and it gets another year of life!

We then headed to Metro to make the BIG Metro trip… Metro is like a Costco. But before we started shopping we decided to eat some lunch. Like Costco they have a little food court area. Unlike Costco was the food selection. They had these trout’s that were spread out and then wrapped up like a cinnamon roll with the fishes head on top. The fish had its mouth open and up and it looked like a bunch of weird looking fish about to attack.

Upon finishing lunch we attacked the shopping. We started with snack stuff for camp and filled up two of the large flat carts. We picked up PopKeks, DanKeks, Crispi and many other things I can’t spell with an English key board.

We also picked up about two normal shopping carts full of other stuff. But a few things that were interesting was that they had a whole Costco size aisle just with coffee and chi (all types of tea) it was amazing if you could imagine it they had it. Then they also had big things of yogurt, umm you know the five gallon buckets of laundry soap or paint they were just slightly smaller than that. There were also community coats for you to wear when you went into the cooler section.

After the shopping we loaded all of this food into the newly inspected van and went to get the camp shirts. I’m not sure if I have mentioned this yet but the sizing rather weird. The ladies shirts are European sizes so they are really small, I can make a large work but it is still rather tight. Then the men shirts are German in size so they are larger than normal, I would be swimming in a small.

We arrived home and did some more camp related computer work and prepared for dinner. Tressa and Manny came over for dinner and to stay the night so they could help with the depo move the next day.

We had an enjoyable evening of food, fellowship, games, and a movie.

Too funny that the ladies shirts are tiny and the men's shirts are huge.
