To round out our week at the Johnsons, we visited Playmobil Funpark together. Chris had the Friday off so we all got to go. Playmobil is a German brand of toys. Everyone here loves them and they now have 7 new fans!!! Its so cute and fun to play with. We couldn't help but purchase some sets to take home with us. We got the camper, the ski boat, the water airplane, and then let each kid pick a guy to bring home. What an awesome day!
When you first enter the park there are a lot of these little life size guys all over for the kids to run by and take pictures with.
As you can see, our kids waisted no time getting comfortable here
First stop was this slide and climbing area. Very different than American style play equipment. Lots of ropes to walk on with gaping holes to fall through and get hurt on = lots of fun!
Next stop the pirate boat. Wow was it fun! How about walking the plank for real?
They had these barges that you could pull across the lake
But these rafts were even more fun. You just wade around out there with all your fellow rafters Jared had a lot of fun trying to steer this with all his helpers
This was our first real experience being around a lot of Germans since arriving. The kids kept trying to talk to us. Its frustrating not knowing what to say back.... Jared said it made him feel all alone even though we were surrounded by a lot of people. Lunch time was interesting. We didn't know any of the names of the food so we did a lot of pointing and smiling. We learned that they pretty much eat everything with a fork including pizza and french fries. We have a lot to learn. The kids got a cute playmobil guy with their lunches.
Cole liked the cowboy hat
Jake loved climbing this while we watched him precariously perched up there. It was a bit of a nail biter.
Behind Noah's Ark is this great area to hands on play with the water Playmobil toys. Our boys could have stayed here the entire time!
The King and Queen watching over there people in the courtyard
I have no idea what this sign says..... but I'm gonna go out on a limb here and suggest its something not good
The amazing castle
Love this little dude
Carter let Cole have a turn with the monkey hat in the car!!

Oh my gosh...It's real. You are really in Germany...LIVING! Wow what amazing things you have already done there in such a short time. Love the playschool park, the castle, the soccer field by your home. I am sure you will pick up some of the language in no time. What an amazing experience for your children. We all miss you guys so much!
