Flight Information

Now I'm really getting excited because I got my flight information for Germany! I kept on hearing about kids who had gotten their info that day, so I decided to go get the mail. Sure enough, there were two envelopes from ASSE waiting. One of them contained generic visa and passport information (still gotta get that visa stuff sent off!). The other envelope had some stuff about our flights and when we need to schedule them. I have to be at Dulles between 1 and 4 pm on August 2. Other than that, I have no idea what's happening that day! I think there is only one flight option, but I'm hoping to book it soon so I can get a window seat!:) Then we have three days of pre-departure orientation in Washington D.C. before we leave for Germany on August 5. Our flight leaves Dulles at 5:15pm and arrives in Frankfurt, Germany on August 6 at 7:10am. The flight is only 7 hours which I was really surprised about. That's only 2 hours longer than to D.C. and maybe 1 hour longer than to Hawaii. Not too bad. My mom emailed Karin, my host mom, so we'll see if GIVE (German version of ASSE) has given her any more info about how I am getting from Fankfurt to Aachen, or wherever I am going to meet my host family. Bis bald!
