Monday was a relatively uneventful day. We went to IKEA to look for some furniture to add to the furniture that is being shipped and we went to a store called "REAL" which is basically Germany's version of a Walmart.
After we explored, C, K, S and I went to lunch at the restaurant at the Visitor's Center in Oberursel. Ordering off of a German menu is still an adventure for us although we clearly have gotten better. I decided that I was going to order the Max Strummer Deluxe -- Schinken, Käse and Spiegelei. O.k. so I know that Schinken is ham and that Käse is cheese. I was convinced I was ordering a sandwich so I figured I was good to go. Well, the waiter delivered my lunch, an open face sandwich with a 1/4 inch of butter on the bread, ham, cheese and two fried eggs on top. For those of you who didn't know -- "Spiegelei" is fried egg in German. Just as Christopher will not likely forget Knoblauch, I will not forget Speigelei.
Later in the evening, we went to a Korean restaurant. None of us had ever been to a Korean restaurant (Chris has, but he was working). There we were with a German menu at the Korean restaurant, a real challenge. I ordered a dish and wouldn't you know that it came out with a fried egg on top. So, yes, I had three eggs in one day.
