Reflection of the Second Week

So I kind of forgot what we did during the second week but one of the two Amanda's helped to get my brain started. We went to this hilarious and fun puppet theater where this guy dressed up and had fun with puppets and performed the fary tale where the daughter supposedly spins straw into gole. He was just so funny. I couldn't understand much of what he was saying because almost all of it was in German except a few parts, maybe a short sentence or two that were in spanish. We also went out to this one restaraunt where we briefly saw the mayor of Ilmenau. On Wendesday, we had Bergfest. On Thursday we went to Erfurt where we had a tour guide or two to break us into groups and take us around Erfurt which was a nice experience. One of the streets that has shops on it, is actually a bridge and you don't even realize it. On Friday, we had our classes in the morning and then for anyone that was going on the two day excursion to Berlin that started on Friday left at 1. So I had to make sure that I ate and got some forgotten stuff by 1 which was only about an hour and 10 minutes because our classes go from 8:45 to 12:00 with a fifteen minutes break from 10:15-10:30. Although we were let out fifteen minutes early on Friday. We got to the youth hositle that we were staying in on the two day Berlin trip at I think around 7 p.m or 8 p.m.. Berlin was fun but that will be in a different post. On Sunday, August the 17th, we climbed KickelHahn which took just about all day. We left the meeting point at about 11:00 a.m. and Mark and I went directly from that to got out to eat which was about 7 p.m. We did stop to rest and eat. Actually there were couple of times where we stopped and rested besides that time. The second week was fun though. See you later.
