Mike's first hair cut

Just like long films get intermissions in Germany (we were really confused when the lights came up halfway through Avatar on our first movie excursion in Germany), this long post about our trip to Cologne is getting an intermission, too!  An insane week has ended and we are finally on our two-and-a-half week long Easter break.  So, no new posts till we get back. 

We made some preparations for our trip after school today, including an overdue hair cut for Mike.  Even Guy mentioned Mike's long boyish locks at our teachers meeting the other day.  Not sure exactly how to articulate the way he wanted his hair cut, the guy gave him two choices:  short or middle short.  We were both curious as to how it would turn out since neither of us have had our hair cut in Germany before.  Let's just say it was not exactly what we're used to -- but it's definitely shorter, which was the goal. 

So here's Mike's new and hip German hair-do.  Some of our students have the same hair cut.
