What? Wal-Mart?

Okay, so maybe I'm just too new to this whole thing. You know, living somewhere that is not the U.S. Or at least I was pretty sure wasn't the U.S. What do I mean by that? Well, when I got the opportunity to take this assignment, I thought to myself, "Hey this will be a great opportunity! Everything will be new, different, TOTALLY unlike life in the states!" Yeah, that was until this afternoon when on the way back to home from Heidelberg, we turned the corner to drive through town and there it was, looming large on the horizon: duh duh daaaaaaaah- a Super Wal-Mart. Hmmm. Well, I guess there's nothing quite like having a little piece of Arkansas right here in Germany!
