What constitutes a passing knowledge of electricity?  If I was in Japan, where 30% is a passing grade, I know what I need to.  If it’s as it is in America, where I believe 60% is still passing, then I think I might pass as well.  One might say the fact that I’m alive is sufficient proof that I have my basics down.  Then there’s always that 5 on the AP Electricity and Magnetism test I took seven years ago.  How do we measure how well we’ve taught our kids?  I’ll let you judge weather my teachers did their job or not (always remembering that I was mainly my own teacher when I homeschooled, then again, I never touched the subject of electricity on my own).

WARNING:  If you think I am smart and all that, please read-on.  If you think I am an incompetent blond who dies her hair brown and has a musician space brain, spare yourself the confirmation and go look at my pretty pictures of Basel and listen to my nice harp music.

Here are some pictures of the dear family I'm staying with.

Here are a few quick pictures from my new place of living.  I think I beat the time it took me to post house pictures of Japan by about six or eight months . . .  Please reward me with comments!

 The kitchen is immediately to the left.

Now that I have internet and power I am tired and have too much to write!  In an effort to boost my energy level I'll start with a few pictures of Basel.

Rathouse im Marktplaz (The Town Hall on the Market Square, I hope I got that German right)
