Germany... AGAIN

Hello all!

I have just gotten back from Harsewinkle. It is going along as good as ever. Lots of eating and playing with deb's 2 yr old kid and her dog. It was really adorable: both the kid and the dog remembered me from staying a year ago. We went out of sausage, ice cream and then the next day had a roast (which basically is the best meal ever). A sunday roast consists of a huge plate topped with more food than should be possible that is then covered in gravy. Yorkshire pudding, sausage wrapped in bacon, mashed potatoes, vegetables, chicken....the list goes on. And to think that some people have these every sunday.

Germany itself was great. It was much warmer than London. Everyone was biking around. Their bikes are a tad different: everyone has baskets on the front and back of their bikes and hold groceries or wicker baskets with flowers. Also unicycles are really popular to ride. We went to a toy shop for the kiddy and I was pleased to see that it has a whole section on circus toys! The only problem was getting home. I didnt realize how important it is to take a break between traveling and daily life.

Getting to class the next day was horrible (my travel card had expired, I hadnt brought any money with me and class was at a museum in the middle of nowhere london). But I am glad I went. I just wish I could stop being so tired.

Next weekend: WIGAN!
