Ciaooo! Or should I say Guten Tag?

Posting very quickly from Müncher/Munich just to say hi! We've had a great time here in Germany, definitely one of our favorite countries, if nothing for the huuuuge beers (Augustiner... great beer company that aparently started in the 1300s!) that come in no less than liters and the even more delicious sausage and mustard and bretzen/pretzels. Our stomachs, so used to oil and vinegar, had a bit of trouble handling all the thick german food. The atmosphere of the whole city is wonderful, definitely a different cultural experience that we will not soon forget. The Springfest was huge and crazy, and the only places to eat are giant beerhalls where you sit at long tables with other Germans, Americans, English, Scottish... people from all over. The nice thing was that we had the chance to interact with more Germans because it's not quite tourist season here.

Well, that's all for now, more tomorrow when we get a chance to use the school computers.

Ciao!
