Yesterday Frauke's mom drove me to the train station in Goslar. She was so sweet--and afraid that I'd get lost or something, haha--so she wrote her phone number down and the bus times for the next day when I had to come back. Anyway from there I took the train to Hildesheim where Chris picked me up. We then met up with Claudi in Hannover. We went shopping, saw the sites--goverment buildings, monuments, churches, etc. We met up with Benedikt somewhere along the way, who was with a friend. That night we met up with some others and went to the bar, was a good time. My drink was 7 Euro 90 though--expensive! We did get some free drinks though, and the people working there took a picture of us and put it on their website. So that's was pretty cool.
Last night we slept and Chris's and then this morning we headed to Hildesheim. It was a cute little town, and it had the most important thing to me: an ice dealer! So we had ice cream---I had my usual--you know the drill. After that we met up with a couple that Chris is friends with. We went through some beautiful gardens in Hannover, and then went out to eat at a greek restaurant. We especially enjoyed their napkins with greek words on them and their German translation. haha.
Another highlight of the weekend: the Michael Jackson announcements. He was all over the radio here in Germany! I understand he was great and everything, but, come on. They've announced his death about 10 million times here! The whole weekend the running joke was, "Did you know that Michael Jackson died?"
Anyway, I headed back to Hahnenklee this afternoon, kind of sad because I'm going to miss Claudi a lot :( Chris I'll see anyway because he is studying at Oakland in the fall.
Anyway, I should probably sleep.
Gute Nacht, Molly
