Well, when I realized (so I thought) that I had no collision coverage, I rode the shuttle back to the Flughafen. I couldn’t find anything. It’s a virtual city, dubbed FRAPORT. They have as much shopping as a mall - and food too. Well, I finally found the National/Alamo rental and they told me I had to actually bring the car back to prove there was no damage already. So I went back to the hotel determined to master the airport in the morning. However, I did drive to the Wiesbaden Wal-Mart and bought a book for Kyle, a 4-pk of Cola Light, a prepaid cell phone card and 2 DVD’s. The German went much better today. I have stuck to McDonald’s so far as it is familiar. However, I still have not figured out how to specify size when it comes to fast food and soft drinks. The menu is labeled with 0,3 L and 0,5 L drinks. I tried to order using the liters and the cashier looked at me like I was speaking Greek and chuckled. Tried it again later at the Wal-Mart McDonald’s and still got funny looks. Got back to the room and TRIED to figure out the cell phone. I sent a text message; apparently nobody’s home.
