Uuggh! I'm not a small girl to begin with and they always depict German, Polish and Czech women as large... yeah, not so much! Everything over there is upstairs or walking and they are rarely big! It costs a small fortune to mail a package from over there! Then there is the joy of figuring out what size you are... my size 6 foot is a 36 there... When you find a shirt your size then you have to figure out will it fit over the cast... I finally broke down and bought a man's coat in a size I have no idea anymore what it was (though it is so nice and warm and snugly I do still love it) but the cost said something about 1,000 something

which actually turned out to only be about $50 but it sure was money I would have liked for the vacation instead!
I didn't even think to warn you about any of that I guess... sorry! Too busy telling you how hard it was to open a bottle of water or cut a pork chop...

I can promise you you will forever be thankful for all the things you can do again when they take that darn thing off!

You should have seen the TSA people with their little swabs to check for chemicals! I felt like asking them exactly how do you think I would be able to build a bomb, I can't even zip my own coat without having 15 minutes to do it!
