Happy Holiday Greetings! I write you now from Horba, as the snow continues to fall around me. It is extra freaking cold here so there are no holes for me to dig here, though I did spend a couple of hours today moving wood. Fun stuff. Anyway, Christmas was great here, and since there are three days of Christmas in Germany, extra great. The first day, the 24th, we had carp for dinner and then opened our presents. Daniela's family fooled me into believing that the package from my parents hadn't arrived yet from America, but it had that day, so I had wonderful presents to open from everyone. The next day the rest of the family came over and we had a big lunch of rabbit and duck, followed by talking and whatnot. That night, Daniela and I went to a concert with some of her friends in a neighborhing town, and there were hundreds if not a couple thousand people. It was huge. The band was really good and played new music, it was sweeet. The next day we went ice skating in Erfurt in a really huge rink. On Thursday I fly to Holland, and then I go to Paris. I do not know when I could write again, so check up!!!! Happy New Year!!!!
