As you all know Garrett is a very self confident child. He doesn't necessarily have to be great to know that he's the best at anything. This has proven to be true even in Germany. Garrett met a new friend from Indiana and spent the day with them on Saturday. The dad, Garrett, Elliott and his brother Ian wanted to go to lunch so Garrett told them about his favorite restaurant. They serve french fries on pizza which is every child's dream. Garrett showed them all the way to walk there from where they live. Now Elliott's dad was raised in Germany and speaks fluent German. Garrett has been here 1 month and knows how to say Ich bin (I am) and Sprite in German. Upon entering the restaurant Garrett leans over to Elliott's dad and tells him, "You better let me do all the talking, they only speak German in here."
Like father like son. Greg is in Italy last week and is in a meeting where he responds to someone with, "That Sucks!" No one said a thing and as they left the meeting, the italian sales person that works for Greg asked him, "Why you talk about socks in the meeting?" I guess "sucks" isn't as universal as we all thought. Later the same day Greg is with the same sales person and tells him "That's Awesome!" to which the sales guy says, "What's awesome? Is that like ass?" I guess awesome isn't universal either.
