#15 Friday, September 8: After a long day of classes, Cait and I decided it would be a good idea to run errands and pick up food for the next week because most stores are closed early Saturday and all day Sunday. Sadly, things did not go as smoothly as planned. We managed to embarress ourselves in the grocery store, take the wrong train...again, got lost trying to find a stinkin mailbox as well as temporarily break my phone. It was a long afternoon to say the least. Thankfully we had a really cute little stir fry dinner with our group of friends, cooked by the one and only Momma Nelson, and then went out in Heidelberg with the rest of the AJY group. We went to a disko on "Unterstraße" and for the first time got some lovin from the German boys. It was about time. haha Boys are very shy in this part of Germany. They do not really approach girls or buy girls drinks...defintely different from the US.
#16 Saturday, September 9: We originally were going to go to France, but we found out that the following week we got to go for free with our group...so that plan was scratched. We decided to hit up the WORLDS largest wine and wurst festival instead! Brats, Spätzle, chocolate covered fruit and wine tasting....can't get much better. The festival was actually really cool. It was like a huge carnival, but with more intense rides and of course...way better food. It was a great trip for us, especially being last minute. It is so nice that every weekend we can find these festivals or concerts or fairs and normally we never have to pay to get there, or for anything but food.
Cait and I have made several blog entries thus far, but they have not been uploading well. We want to be able to show you all at home what the atmosphere is like through all of our travels. It is so much easier to show you than to try to explain. We just can't do these amazing places justice with only our words. This is the 3rd video we have made, but the first one I uploaded to Youtube. I am slowly putting the previous ones up so feel free to check my Youtube channel if you want to see them later this week. Warning, although this video is not too bad..the others are CHEEZZZZYYYY :) Enjoy.
#17: We got the TV to work! After a long day of walking and eating Cait and I spent the afternoon watching German TV which was a first since we have been here. Then some of the girls came over for a "girls night". We made some food and watched the Titantic in German! Nice relaxing end to a great day!
