Dining with Juliana's Family

Mariella and I were dropped off in Kaiserslautern city center by the two older German men who gave us a ride from Frankfurt. They let us barrow their cell phone so we could call Juliana and tell her what corner to meet us at. We grabbed a small pizza from a bakery and snacked while we waited for Juliana. We were put in contact with Julian through our friends Brad and Laurel who used to work with U.S. military youth. Juliana greeted us warmly and invited us to have dinner with her family who is visiting from Lincoln, California. We ate wonderfully tasting German food at a nice restaurant. Mariella and I dined on cheese covered schnitzel and noodles (yes, just like the Sound of Music song, “Favorite Things”). We had great food and enjoyable conversation with the Law family.
