On Wednesday Christine, her son Simon, and I, went to the Freibad, or the public pool as we call it in English. I relaxed in the warmest pool they have. Was very nice.
In the the evening Christine and I went to see the movie The Proposal, or as it is called here, Selbst ist die Braut. The theater was holding a ladies night. So basically we got a free mini bottle of champagne each and admission to the movie. Was really a very cute movie and the champagne was delicious. I just keep thinking of Ramone..the way he is spelled his name using spanish pronunciation is just priceless. Christine and I just couldnt stop laughing.
On Thursday Christine took me to Munich. We walked around a bit, had lunch, and then I met up with my friend Lotte. I hadnt seen her in 4 years! We made Maultaschen for dinner, then went out shopping. I went crazy and bought tons of stuff from S. Oliver and Esprit, my two new favorite stores. Later that evening we went to see the movie the Hangover, which was pretty funny. Weird though, since it was dubbed into German....
On Friday I took the train back to Augsburg. I got off a stop too early and had to call Christine and tell her to wait for me because I had to wait for the next train. Ugh...stupid me. Later that day we went to a fest outside for Simons Kindergarten. It was on a farm so there were lots of beautiful horses running around. The kids sang, and then we ate some delicious food...everyone had to bring something. After Christine, Ingo, the kids and I went to see the marching band perform in the town square...there were tents set up and everyone was drinking beer out of those huge mugs. It honestly looked like stereotypical Bavaria, which was hilarious. Christine and I split one of those huge mugs of Radler, which is beer mixed with lemonade. It was actually delicious. Unf. the marching band ended up getting rained out, so we headed back home. We watched a Krimi on TV and then I went to sleep.
Today Christine and I went to Schloss Neuschwanstein, the most famous castle in all of Germany. We had to walk up a steep hill to get there, but it was definitely worth it. Its so very beautiful there! We went on an English tour, and unf. the guide had horrible pronunciation, so much so that I could barely understand her at times. But that was okay, since Christine and I got a pretty good laugh out of it.
This evening I am relaxing, and watching Degrassi. I havent had a relaxing night like this in a while and I am enjoying it a lot.
I should probably sleep soon. Bye!! Molly
