Today I've been to the US Consulate in Frankfurt to apply for the visa. Everything went suprisingly quick. I got there at about 8.20am and left about two hours later with my visa application granted. Now I hope that the visa will arrive here in time. I also scheduled the flight to Atlanta today. It will depart on September 3rd from Frankfurt and goes directly non-stop to Atlanta. I will arrive there around 2pm. A few days ago I also found a nice person through craigslist, who is renting a room for this time.

I will try to explore the capabilities in designing and integrating this into my own site. If it works this might get a part of my future site, too. So, sorry for not writing more, I have to do some exploration :)
