Hey folks. I am really sorry that I kept mumm so long. But there was hardly time to write an actual post and I have to admit that even today my time is kinda limited. I just wanted to let everyone know that I really enjoy being with the Bennetts. As it is with language and speaking skills, I was really suprised how rusty* my English was. Seriously. It is getting better though, which is really motivating me to keep talking. However, I really miss you guys, especially those that left for SENIOR TRIP (word for Maturareise).

What have we’ve been doing so far:

• Riding Bikes in the area of Pacific Grove and Monterey Beach (We had awesome weather. As usual.)
• Watched a gazillion movies. (Die hard with the Vengence, Life Free Or Die Hard, Over the Hedge ['We can get a thousands of channels'], Parts of Terminator II, X-Men Three/The Last Stand, Catch 22.
• A nice story (about movies, but I think it is worth making a new listing point): We went to the theather the other day with the intention of watching Shrek Three, but we bought tickets for “Knocked Up”. We entered the theather and somehow Austin was not permitted to enter, so Austin and I ended up watching Evan Almighty. Nice film with funny moments. Coudn’t help but think about all those Religionsmaturanten. Haha. Gen 16.
• Checked out starbucks after the movies and I found a new delicious starbucksish store called Cherry Bean. Nice coffeeshop.
• Havent been to In’n'Out yet. Drank gallons of Dr Pepper.

I keep you up to date after I come home from my Vegas trip and our tour down south around LA and the OC and stuff. I should be back by sunday, so I can put some pictures online. I know you’re dying to see some. Haha. Have a nice week. Philipp
