A bunch of traveling

So, its been a really long time since I've updated. I'm not in Italy anymore.. School ended for me on May 8th. After that I went to Copenhagen for a week as Sara wrapped up her school there. Copenhagen is such a cool city, it was really great to get to spend so much time there. It was also kind of sad to have to watch Sara say goodbye to her host family. They are really great. They really enjoyed having her there this semester. And they were so generous to me also, letting me stay there for so long.

So, we left Copenhagen and took a bus to Berlin. Berlin is a really amazing city. It was incredible to be somewhere with such recent history, things that shaped the world happened there less than 20 years ago. It was so surreal to see the Berlin wall, and places like Checkpoint Charlie.

After Berlin we went to Munich. What a great city. Beer halls and biergartens all over the place. They love beer so much. When you go to a beer hall, you can't even buy less than a liter of beer. ha. We also took a day trip from Munich to Neuschwanstein Castle. It was beautiful, located in the German Alps. Swan Lake (the place that inspired the classical music peice) was really close, so we went swimming there too.

And now we're in Zurich. I am very excited to see this city. I feel like i know so much more this time around than the last time I was here. Anyway, its Switzerland for the rest of this trip. OK, see ya!
