Day 27 (July 5th)

We all (including the kids) woke up around 7:45 AM and headed over to our usual corner bakery for breakfast. I had my standard camembert cheese on a roll with chocolate milk. The kids also had sandwiches; Zach had the cheese on a plain roll and Hannah had the salami sandwich. We then walked Al to her office and headed back to the room. We relaxed in the room for a little bit before heading down to the "Cave" area. The kids love this place because it has a bunch of pillows and we create all sorts of games. We (mostly me) also spend about 15-20 minutes in the sauna. There are a few different liquid aromas which you can mix into the water you pour over the lava rocks. Hannah loves doing this, but doesn't like sitting in the sauna. We played for a while before going back upstairs to our room. Then, the kids and I met Al for lunch and went over to Lupo's for pizza. This is a guaranteed win for Zach. Both the kids like the thin pizza with little sauce and lots of cheese. We walked Al back to the office and the kids wanted ice cream. There is a good ice cream place right down the street from Al's office. Hannah got a cappacino cone and Zach a chocolate cone. Lately, Hannah is really into coffee and coffee flavors. Since the sun was out we walked around the Alstadt while the kids had their ice cream. It wasn't 15 minutes until the kids had to go to the bathroom so we went back to the room. All day the weather was eradict anyway. One minute the sun was out and the next it was raining. We played some games in the room and the kids read a little. They wanted to go back down to the "Cave" area and play again so we did that for an hour or so. By that time the kids were exhausted and we came back to the room to relax. Before I knew it Zach was out cold. I let him sleep for 20 minutes until Al came home. Since the kids were very tired we decided to go to the restaurant next store with Rajani called Casa Luigi. We needed to order something special for Zach so
