Spring Break
Hello everyone and sorry it has been awhile. I am back from spring break. I went to Frankfurt and Berlin. It was AMAZING! I stayed in Frankfurt with Aunt Laura’s sister. Her house is beautiful. Her daughter Hannah (and her boyfriend Max) and son Jonathan showed me around. It was really great. The food was good. I have pork chops and kraut with potatoes with Applewine. It was really good.
After being in Frankfurt I went to Berlin and met up with a kid from my program. Berlin was truly amazing. The city was really cool, all the old buildings from the Soviet times. Also the city was pretty cheap compared to Spain. We mostly ate bread and cheese but the beer was cheap and good. At least better than in Spain. I would love to visit again. There are a lot of young people there too and from all over. It was really great. The weather was really nice as well. I was very lucky. Anyways, overall I had a really great time and will be posting photos very soon!
Hi, Caitlin. I would love to see the photos when you have a chance. Pat and I enjoyed being in Berlin more than 18 years ago, just as the wall was coming down. It was a beautiful city, at least on the western side. We went to the Soviet side and the feeling was completely different, with buildings still pocked by WWII bullets. It must have changed greatly in the intervening years. I’m so glad you met up with Hannah and Jonathan. I saw Yvonne this past week in Charlotte, and she said they all enjoyed having you visit.
Love, Aunt Laura

We want stories! We saw all the cool pictures on Facebook, so now you have to write about them.
