Car

We finally made the decision and bought a car. We have gone two and a half years without a car but the time had come to buy one. With the girls getting older they have more friends and playdates. The majority of their friends and our friends now live out of town which isn't easily accessible without a car. We didn't want to spend the money for a new car so we bought used. Not speaking the language though and fear of car troubles we decided to buy a used car with low mileage. We had initially thought we would buy a really small car but then the reality of putting two bikes and a dog in the back made us upgrade the size we were looking to buy. We ended up buying a škoda octavia combi (pictured here). It is basically a small wagon. I'm excited to have the freedom of a car. Not only does it mean the school pick ups will be easier and we can see our friends out of town more but it also means we can take more road trips....dresden, berlin, salzburg etc..here we come!!
