Arriving in Germany

I am in Germany - I am alone - for now. I have a job, but not much more. So my wife and and my son sent me ahead to check out the area and find a place to live. By the way, we will move to the area of Stuttgart - the capital of the state of Baden-Württemberg in southern Germany.

Fortunately I have family and some friends here, so that is a big help. For now I am staying with a coworker.

First shock at my arrival - the weather. I thought spring had already somewhat arrived in Germany, but when we landed in Frankfurt almost a week ago the pilot announced: "the weather is not great. Cloudy sky, SNOW and around 0° (32° Fahrenheit)." 

So I really was freezing when I got off the plane. Especially since it was around 25° (77°) when I left Taipei.

One reason to move to this area was the - supposedly - good weather. I hope I will not be proven wrong.

By the way - nicer pictures will follow later when I get my camera which is still with wife and son.  For now i have to rely on my Blackberry.
