I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new.

I am going to try to bring some seeds home from charley to see if I can grow a tree in Germany. Last night Philip and I saw the first showing of the Disney movie Frozen. We loved it! And I'm hoping to go visit my sister Shelley today.
