What can I say, we have been nothing but blessed in this experience so far. We arrived last Monday morning and have experienced German food, culture, and of course Franz Marc Gymnasium. Each student spent the weekend with their host families either traveling around Bavaria or even getting to know their hometown. I had the privilege to spend my Friday with the teachers who have so graciously made us feel welcomed down in Munich for dinner.
Eventually I escape for the rest of the weekend to my cousins house in Pasing, which is only 15 minutes west of Munich. Along the way, I had the joy to make two quick stops to Schloss Nymphenburg; great castle in the city of Munich and the BMW Welt; I can't even begin to imagine how amazing it would be to drive one... now if I can only have 80,000 Euro's... that was one of the cheapest car I saw. Both places were awesome!
I had one weekend to relax and strengthen up, tomorrow, July 9, we are off on our 6 day tour of Germany. This tour will take us into such cities as; Berlin, Aachen, Cologne, Nuremberg, and of course back home to Markt Schwaben on Saturday, July 14 with Sunday as a host family day before we gear up to present our topics to our sister school.
So many great blog entries to come. We hope that all of you are doing well and that this blog really helps you see and experience our trip.
